I did one sci-fi movie. I did 'Gattaca.' I liked 'Gattaca' because that was always the kind of science fiction I really dug, the non-action oriented sci-fi.

If I do three movies in a year, I don't feel like acting ever again.

It's so hard for every young person, trying to figure out the adult you want to be.

The constant buzz and pressure and noise and static of the Internet, and the way it makes young people feel makes it difficult to grow up and develop the way one might want to.

Years ago I was going to play Chet Baker in another movie and I really felt drawn to that character and the script is good and I met with Robert and we seemed simpatico and we developed. But I had a real passion for that role and that brought me deep into that film 'cause I got the sense that Robert Budreau was going to really let me be creative inside this part.

It was never in my dreams to make my personal life anybody else's business.

Most of us float with the river and there are a few people who move the river. Robert DeNiro is definitely one of them.
