Everybody acts like they're in a movie in most movies. That's why they stink.

When actors talk about research, they're just patting themselves on the back.

Violence doesn't seem to bother people anymore - they're inured to it. And I think it has a lot to do with the violence in movies and video games - it doesn't bother people as much. I'm not so sure it evokes a reaction anymore.

My method seems to change to everything, especially when you get older. You have more of a resonance to be able to grab to. When you're younger, you have these big boundaries because you don't know how to get you to where you are. When you get older, you have a few tricks that you can pull off.

When you look at some of the most respected actors there are and the crap that they're in... it didn't used to be that way.

Whatever character you're playing you have to complete the entire interior infrastructure, whatever it is - but what gets divulged or what people completely understand depends on the script and what you decide to show. But you have to know it.

I made three movies in 1995 and I was unhappy with all of them: Sleepers, Incognito, and Speed 2.
