Were all conning ourselves, one way or another, just to get through life.

It was always that I finished one movie and then had no idea what I was doing. I think there's a limited amount of planning you can do, at least in the position I'm in. Maybe more successful actors can plan more than I'm able to.

My hope is that people will be repulsed by the character's complete lack of ethics and obsession with consumerism - that's what I was saying about the difference between the character's message and the film's message.

Basically, it's somebody who got stuck having to interview me who really wants to be a novelist, so they're writing these novellas and I was like, "It's not true, that didn't happen, they just made all that up! Why don't they just go ahead and be a novelist instead of bothering with interviewing me?"

For me, I think the harder the shoot, the more I feel like I'm enjoying myself.

When it comes to films, people often don't differentiate between the message of a bad central character and the message of the film itself. They are two separate things.

It's about pursuing it rather than waiting to see what comes along.
