I'm not a big dreamer. I never have been. I remember fragments of my dream, and I try to take a traditional sort of approach to researching this project and doing preparation for it.

I've got this reputation for shooting one take which is a wonderful reputation to have but it's hard to live up to.

I've really only had one (dream) since I got into this business at 13 years old, which was to be in this business forever. Once I did my first television commercial, I caught that itch and that bug. I want to be a part of pieces of art - as far as cinema is concerned - that people will want to see for generations to come. That's my dream.

I'm nothing like Romeo in real life.

I never thought I could travel unless I had a wife or someone to share it with. You don't necessarily need that, but I am the type of person that wants to share a lot.

I've changed. You can't help it. Your mind starts working in a different way. You feel really scrutinised by people.

Obviously people don't want other people to tell them how to think or what to believe, or to tell them what's right politically and what's wrong.
