I'm just a small guy so if I'd dropped any more weight it would have been a bit ridiculous.

It must be hard to be a female in a David Mackenzie movie. I feel like women in his films are portrayed a certain way - like broken people.

I never realised that the Edinburgh skyline was so interesting - it's gothic and very urban and there's a lot of church spires and old brownstone buildings.

The reason I do small, independent movies is because I want to keep my soul intact and maintain some kind of integrity within this industry.

I think documentary filmmaking is a braver way to make films because it's real, and you're really there.

I remember when I first came to America and I saw posters for TV shows and I was like, "What?! Why does a television show deserve space on a billboard?"

Sometimes great things come from doing things quickly and not over-thinking stuff.
