No one’s personal life is in the public interest. It’s gossip, bottom line. End of story.

[What's my favourite book?] It changes all the time.

I've been around politics a long time. I've seen it at its best and its worst, been at so many events, listened to private conversations versus public speaking, understood the game of it, and in many ways the theatrics.

I liked it because it was such a dangerous script and showed just what human beings are capable of. Here was a movie in which Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt, who always win in every movie they ever do, simply don't win. I felt that was outrageous for a commercial movie.

While data can only tell you what has happened in the past, it can in some ways give you a sense of what might be of interest to an audience in the future.

I mean we all played as kids. You play games, you take on different characters, you imitate; the fun and the love of play has never left me.

Sometimes I'll be flipping through the channels and I'll see a movie I'm in. And I'll probably stop and think, 'Sure, I'll watch this.'
