I'm not much of a cake person.

My parents are left-wing, and I would describe myself as that. But also, you know what? I wouldn't describe myself as that. Because I don't have to. Because I'm not a political party. Most people are a little bit of each, and we change our mind on various issues.

Working hard is important. But there is something that matters even more, believing in yourself.

Religion leaves no room for human complexity.

Part of an actor's job is to find correlations between your own life and the life of the person you are playing.

My taste in the films I've taken as an actor is similar to what I'd do a director or writer: all quite odd, challenging stuff, slightly off-the-wall.

I think that the process of making a film is an underrated factor in how that film turns out.
