I'm belligerent rather than ambitious.

My philosophy was, if I just do good work, someone will like it enough to employ me. It never made me famous. And I'm way, way too old now, mate. That boat's sailed.

You learn more doing than doing training.

It's not any desire on my part to start playing dads, but it's a convention of drama. If you don't get the parts of young people going out to nightclubs, you have to play their fathers.

I'm not usually attracted to big-budget American films.

Even before my audition, there were several pages missing from my script because those bits were so unbelievably secret not even I was allowed to see them.

Everyone should be good at what they do.
