For as long as I can remember, the thing that gave me a sense of wonderment and renewal... has always been the work of other actors.

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

My preference is that, that day when someone sticks a tripod in front of you with a camera on the top, it is not day one.

I like to cook things very slowly.

As a member of the audience I don't like it that I can't see what's going on in the eyes and in the face and in the most subtle responses of a performer when I'm more than a few rows back. I find it very frustrating.

I see a lot of movies. I love films as a spectator, and that's never obscured by the part of me that does the work myself. I just love going to the movies.

If you remain unsettled by a piece of writing, it means you are not watching the story from the outside; you've already taken a step toward it.
