You spend some time raising a child in London, carrying it around on one side of your body - it puts your back out!

I don't think I know enough about acting to direct. You need to be a slight megalomaniac, not where you want to take over the world, but where you want to make every single decision and the buck stops with you. It's an awful lot of stress.

I'm not posh, not in the slightest. My parents spent some money on my education, but I wasn't born to the purple.

Some actors go, 'Bing!' and suddenly they're being paid huge sums. Me, I seem to get screwed every time.

If I lived in L.A., I'd be schizophrenic after a week.

When you see a finished film, it's very rare that it exceeds your expectations.
