Filmmaking is such a collaborative medium.

I have four dogs, four horses, a cat, and a bunch of wild frogs

I felt strong around and always been around people who have very strong environmental convictions.

My favorite thing is to be naked, which is why I always live in remote areas. My ideal is to wake in the morning and run around the meadows naked. I think it's a good idea to live in harmony with nature.

I never had come up with a really profound and strong gesture - nothing like Julia Butterfly's. So I figured the best thing I could do was live by my beliefs. That's probably the most profound thing that anybody can do.

I find that when I play reality-based characters, it is only as fun for me if I have a lot of time to do research. If I don't it just isn't exciting but if I do, it can be fun because I can learn about that person and the world that they live in and I can become somebody else

Most Oscar parties are pretty silly. They're really for people who like to schmooze.
