Leaving a role is a terrible sadness. The last day of the shooting is surreal. Your soul, your body and your mind are not ready at all to see the end of this experience. In the following months after a film shoot, one feels a deep sense of void.

I'm a little bit perverse, and I just hate doing the thing that's the most obvious.

Film has become such a central part of our culture now that I think sometimes too great a weight is placed upon it in terms of scrutiny and analysis. There's a lot of rather specious professorial stuff that swirls around films.

I hate wasting people's time.

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

It's easy to love humanity when you're this far away from it.

I don't feel my son should pay the price for what I do.
