The reason bin Laden staggered the planes going into the towers was so every camera would be focused on the second tower when the plane hit. It was not only the murder, but the perpetual image of the horror that permeated into people's consciousness.

But no, I don't really like romantic comedies, so I don't really care. I never go see 'em.

A lot of people are not meant to be together.

I think that taking night trains or meeting someone on the road is pretty romantic. I've done a couple of things like that. I've surprised someone in Paris. And hopefully, when you surprise someone, they're happy to see you.

Kitsch is more dangerous than it looks when taken to the extreme.

Acting can be pretty challenging. I can't say making a romantic comedy is challenging, but to do anything well, you have to put yourself into it.

I never really saw myself as an activist but at some point the activist is the only moral position to take.
