For me, one of the most important things I look for in an actor is whether we can converse. Do we have a similar ability to discuss a character?

I want to investigate what scares me and worries me.

When you love something, it never goes away.

Some people are just not going to like me and they're not going to like my work. But that doesn't mean I'm a bad person.

The way that we tend to think about privacy is not that you have to keep everything secret, it's not that you can't share anything with other people - it's that you have control over the dissemination of the information about you.

When you finish some film and you let it out there, it is completely out of your control. You've done what you've done, you haven't done what you haven't done, and now you are up for judgment. People can be all kinds of ruthless and they can be all kinds of wonderful. The joy in what I do is in the doing of it. And then there is the part where people are either going to see what I've offered and liked it or they are going to see what I've offered and wish they hadn't.
