I think the story of 'Alice in Wonderland' in a way is a reminder that life is frightening, it can shift on you at any moment.

I'm a huge fan of science fiction and fantasy - not so much horror because I get a bit scared.

I would like to be taller, thinner and more rakish looking.

I am prone to get carried away thinking about creative projects.

I think when you work on a Woody Allen film the actors become a real company, probably more than on any other film.

A parent can seem very kind and gentle, but as any child knows, as soon as that parent gets stressed, they can suddenly turn and get a bit angry.
