You don't merely give over your creativity to making a film - you give over your life! In theatre, by contrast, you live these two rather strange lives simultaneously; you have no option but to confront the mould on last night's washing-up.

Making a film, setting it up and getting it cast and getting it together, is not an easy thing

I don't deal at all well with the relative amount of stuff I have to face already.

I have a competition in me. I want no one else to succeed. I hate most people.

I would like to have children while I've still got the energy. But then I have the feeling that when I have children I'll stop performing in the same way, because you don't really need to perform if you have children.

It must be hard interviewing actors.

A voice is such a deep, personal reflection of character.
