I'm on this diet where you're supposed to eat only fish and meat.

I got to work with my wife, Lena Olin, for the first time, which was great. I thought it might be difficult in some way to talk to one's wife in a different way but it was so not forced.

Many of the comedies I had made in Sweden were slightly based on semi-autobiographical experiences, so adapting novels was a very different experience.

I am always more interested in performance and character depiction, and my direction says as much.

I love involving actors at all levels - and they have to know that I want to hear their contributions, with dialogue, with story suggestions, with script changes, whatever.

But I notice that there is a lack of darkness in my movies and I don't know where that comes from.

My key interest in choosing scripts is character-driven stories, because there are so many stories that sacrifice character for plot.
