Everything I put my name to and take part in, I want to be good. That's not saying it will always happen. But I want to make bold choices.

I keep everything very simple. I like telling stories.

Being movie director you've got the art department, you've got the actors, you've got the camera department, you've got make-up and hair, and props. You've got your finger in all these pies, and you're making sure that everything cooks at the right temperature.

As an audience member and as an actor I much prefer to find ambiguity.

I guess in the independent market, I'd be getting offers, but in terms of big studio films, I still have to audition. I don't think my name is that well-known, I don't have much of a following to guarantee box office success yet.

The actors I looked up to when I was a teenager, they all just disappeared into different characters.

I believe that if you go and see a film you should have to sort of invest something yourself and you have to do a little bit of the work as an audience member, so when you leave the cinema you should be having those conversations either with yourself - if you're crazy like me- or with friends afterwards.
