You never want to have a movie be derivative, because that's the worst if you ask me. I always want to be in original material, or an original idea, or an original vision, rather than a rehash of some other movie.

To me Polanski is one of the greats in terms of psychological horror. It's just hard to top him because he's so damn good at it.

It's the cable shows that are really the most interesting - 'Mad Men,' 'Breaking Bad,' those shows are really the premiere shows on television right now.

I think everything keeps changing. There was a time when television was a bad thing for actors and it meant that you could only do television, and now we see everyone does television.

Most of the time people are aiming so low on television. They're trying to reach that common denominator, especially on network television.

It's hard to find success and it's hard to find hit movies or hit TV shows and to stay relevant. I think it's a very difficult thing for actors, because a lot of us get lost, frankly.

My theory about actors is we're all walking milk cartons. Expirations dates everywhere.
