I was raised with a single mom and we had a very specific, very particular relationship. She worked with me and my job. I was almost three and we traveled everywhere together and she was really in my life in a really profound way. The most significant relationship of my life. It was beautiful and also an incredible, difficult struggle. I know how creative that life is, and how difficult it is to figure it out.

I love European movies and I kind of grew up on European films.

I don't think there is anything good about fame. 'Tables in restaurants.' People say that but, then again, why don't you just call the day before? Or go eat somewhere else?

My kids are young and my life with them is really stimulating and really full and significant.

Privacy above all else. Some day, in the future, people will look back and remember how beautiful it once was.

It's very hard for me to get a new car. It's really hard for me to get a new house. It's really hard for me to move on from the things that give me stability.

I've worked with Neil Jordan, who I really adore. We did The Brave One [2007] together.
