A lot of young actors will do a scene and then run off and look at themselves. I don't believe in that at all

Doing cinema is not about watching yourself

There's always a time for change, and you should never be frightened of it.

Quite often in life, when a tragic event arrives it becomes a springboard for mirroring all other things in one's life that one hasn't come to terms with.

When I take on something, I take the whole thing on. It's not even a question of separating, "Oh, am I going to be naked?" If you know you have to do something in life, for me, I go with my whole person.

Ever since I was a small child, Ive had this feeling - its in my nature, and so its not even pretentious - that if everyones going one way, I will go the other, just by some kind of spirit of defiance.

I must explore desert ground and see what can grow. But there are limits. I know in my heart what I would never do.
