You're spoilt as an actor if you are in that small percentage that works regularly.

As an actor, I'm familiar with having bursts of energy, where you're giving things a try, and then you have down time.

With a woman of sophistication, class and modesty and refinement, I become a totally tongue-tied buffoon. I can't even look her straight in the face.

My first priority is to my wife, as hers is to me, and to our child.

A big budget studio film is slower, theyve got so much to create around you. Everything is more complicated.

I'm not sure I'm the sort of actor people are hugely interested in finding out an awful lot about.

I'm happiest when I can just be a director and watch.
