I've always belonged to the street, and I always will. It's in my DNA.

I'm getting so old - it's more uncomfortable to do those scenes now than when I was 20. I mean, I don't have a big problem with nudity on screen. But usually the days when you do those naked love scenes are the weirdest ones on set. Everyone is uncomfortable. You're like, 'Hi. How are you?'

The award is important in order to bring people to the movie theater. That's the only principle meaning of any award.
