I think I was shown Pulp Fiction and Goodfellas at seven or eight. That's really bad. I think I've turned out all right; it didn't harm me too much.

Music was a big thing for me growing up and Scorsese and Tarantino both use music brilliantly in movies. They're probably two of the best at using music.

When I'm putting the character together I try to find music that I think fits the character.

I want to be 82 and doing movies with Paolo Sorrentino where people are like, "This is gold."

There are a lot of great young actors coming out of England who have maybe not gone to drama school, but I wish I had.

A challenge is always important; as an actor, as a human, it's good to face challenges and it's good to push your boundaries.

People have interesting things to say and you're only going to learn from different people's experience and knowledge.
