The beauty of a really good movie is that it's a whole world, complete in an hour and a half or two hours.

I don't like television and movies where it's like, "Well, that was entertaining, but when I think back on it, that didn't really make sense and it's empty." That's like junk food, to me.

I have always read all my reviews, the bad along with the good (although you remember the bad much more than the good!). I am just too curious to see how it's playing with the audience, and I have a thick-enough skin to handle the less charitable assessments.

I have so many things that I want to do, and I don't have enough time in my life to do them all. The problem with acting business is that it's so expensive and you've got to get so many people to say yes.

You can't outsmart or outguess the audience in terms of what the narrative answer is.

If people walk out of the movie and they think about it, then that's quite something.

I love films where I'm looking around the world a little different now that I've seen that. I want something that nourishes my view of the world.
