Every job leaves its residue, a bit of extra knowledge, a new skill-set.

I always kept myself fairly fit.

Everything is a learning process: any time you fall over, it's just teaching you to stand up the next time.

I can't sing or dance.

What I like is having a conversation that gets you on the right page. And, if that means having conversations in lieu of rehearsal - I don't wanna get up and cook the thing before we shoot it but I do wanna know that me and the director know exactly what we both want to achieve, and that we're moving in the same direction.

North America makes a ton of movies and there's a ton of movies that are exceptional.

It's tricky. I've never been standing at the top of the tree with tons of money thrown at me. I've never really had a profile. So in a way I have this 'nothing to lose' attitude.
