I'm a bit of a romantic.

When I go on the plane to fly home, I'm literally capable of forgetting what I do for a job. That also comes about because I choose to take massive breaks between projects, and because I choose to do this ridiculous thing of keeping home, home.

I'd say I'm the opposite of someone that has the urge to stand in front of strangers and make them laugh, but the idea of getting up and telling a story and people finding it amusing always appealed to me.

I think the beauty of working with young people is they remind you of the spirit of acting and it's just a big play.

I think luck gets you on to the stage. But it has nothing to do with keeping you there.

We shot that in Morocco, and got out of the country at the beginning of July - and two months later came the attack on Twin Towers. The movie was then released in December, so that kind of atmosphere is not something that was unfamiliar to me.

I've always described parts as tattoos. For actors our tattoos are in the form of films.
