The Dutch are a very practical people.

I always feel like I want to do my career my own way. I never follow anybody's path, what they've done.

I have a friend in New York who's a stylist and I went over to her place because she's got a lot of clothes. I basically ended up wearing most of it. So it's all stuff that I brought over.

I'm 5' 11" as I proudly say - just so I don't have to say six feet.

I'm very grateful for work especially in film industry. It's highly competitive and there are a lot of people standing behind me jumping at the opportunity to only do one thing, like one movie or one TV show or one episode.

It's different for each individual. It's different when you talk about homosexuality. It's different when you talk about a malady like deafness. Everybody might have a different response to that and that's what makes it an interesting subject to throw in a movie.

I keep pushing buttons and trying to grow as a person and as a filmmaker.
