I hate violence. When I hold a gun, I feel death in my hands, but it's fun to pretend in the movies.

We live in the moment now where this whole movie business is crazy.

My truth - what I believe - is that there are no answers here and, if you are looking for answers, you'd better choose the question carefully.

Awards were made in Hollywood, in whatever the time it was created. They're to promote each other's movies. You give me an award, I give you an award and people will believe that we are great movies and they'll go to see them. It's still the same.

I'm not the kind of actor that gets crazy with [directors'] names, what draws me toward a project is the material itself.

I don't think an actor needs to necessarily go through his things to do his job. I think it's way more important to imagine. And then, when you're imagining, your experiences, your images and your own personal things will show up, but you keep imagining. You don't get stuck in your own personal things, otherwise you are telling your story in every character, and that's not interesting for anybody.

When you know people are really at peace with who they are and what they do, they collaborate and want to help you to improve.
