I just work in order to improve myself as an actor which is what I've always done.

I'm always slightly envious of people who become extremely rich without anyone knowing who the hell they are, like financiers.

When I was a young actor I was in a lot of film doing one day work and two days' work, and they've included all those titles, which I don't even remember. I think I've played the lead in about 75 movies.

I'm looking for me to disappear, and the acting to disappear, and all you see is a real person.

I don't see myself as anything. I just wander around getting on with my life.

English is clipped in speech. Texas is exactly the opposite.

I think what is British about me is my feelings and awareness of others and their situations. English people are always known to be well mannered and cold but we are not cold - we don't interfere in your situation. If we are heartbroken, we don't scream in your face with tears - we go home and cry on our own.
