[That night] I was sitting by Jack Nicholson with my long list of thanks, and I said, `I'm so nervous. I don't know what to say if I go up there.' He said, `Don't get emotional, drop the names, and dedicate it to your mother.'

We actors always say how difficult and physically demanding a role was. But give me a break, it's only a movie.

I'm a huge fan of the director, Alejandro González Iñárritu, and his work, and I knew he was going to be an amazing actor's director, based on the performances that I saw in his movies.

I can't imagine what it would be like being James Bond 24 hours. That must be exhausting.

I do respect people's faith, but I don't respect their manipulation of that faith in order to create fear and control.

I do a job and am lucky enough to do a job that I love, but it is a hard one. I'm not saying it is as hard as working in a coal mine, but it is still difficult in a different way. Sometimes you have to go through very strong emotional journeys and then come back to yourself. And that can be difficult to control.

I want to act because I don't know how to do anything else.
