What you do as a policeman might be the right thing to do, but it's not entertaining. I left that behind me.

I love England and the historical aspect of it.

This is my first experience working in a foreign movie, but the mechanics, I think, are pretty much the same all over; you still have to wait in the trailer.

There's a whole catalogue of actors that never went to acting school.

Writer-directors are a little bit more liberal, rather than having just the writer on the set, because I think sometimes the writer becomes too precious with the words. If you're a writer-director, you can see what you're doing and see your work in action, so I think you can correct it right there and still not compromise yourself.

I don't like to be talked into anything. I don't want to be cajoled.

I learned a long time ago: You're in the entertainment business. You're not in the reality business. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other.
