I ask Laurie it it's possible to get trained fish. Lindsay says this is how we know I've never produced a movie.

But when I lose my temper, I find it difficult to forgive myself. I feel I've failed. I can be calm in a crisis, in the face of death or things that hurt badly. I don't get hysterical, which may be masochistic of me.

I understand what it's like to come with your family, and to uproot yourself and come to another culture. You need a lot of support. People say, 'She's got her daughter; she's got her husband.' Yeah, but she hasn't got anyone else.

It doesn't matter how good the movie is. What matters is what it takes during the opening weekend. It's slightly distressing sometimes but that's how it works.

Just write. It doesn't matter what you write. Just sit at your desk and write.

I don't have technique because I never learnt any.

Why do we wear them? They're so painful.
