I was a hoodlum. I was a gang member, and art saved my life.

The difficulty is capturing surprise on film.

Woody Allen sets are very quiet. Extraordinary sense of power from a man who doesn't do anything except just stand there.

Arnold Schwarzenegger, I don't know if you'd call him a great actor, but he's amazing in terms of his presence, and he is interesting enough that you want to watch him.

Suddenly I was the man who got the part that every actor in the English language was trying to get. I was really scared. I had talked the talk, and now I had to walk the walk. For three days, I couldn't answer the phone.

I acted my heart out.

I really like to experiment. That's the only way I can work. It's instinctive.
