I'm English and I'm used to coming from a world of period dramas, where there's a very polite restraint to everything. Everybody's sort of sitting in drawing rooms.

I'm the git in the family.

The thing about Hemingway that people forget is that all the stuff he did was at a time where people weren't traveling that much. At 19 he travels to Italy. He goes to the Spanish Civil War. He goes to China, he goes to Africa so at that time to travel that much is really incredible.

I feel for those 19-year-olds who get thrust into the limelight that young.

I don't just like to have 1 take, but not too many. I think it is good to keep it alive.

I go off and make movies; I come home, and I'm a dad and I hang with my girls.

For me really good acting is about subtext.
