The main thing about awards in movies is that they can serve as an economic surge for the film. If you're movie gets nominated for any award it does it a big favour. People might go and see it again... they won't give up on it.

I gravitate towards gravitas.

You measure yourself by the people who measure themselves by you.

It's seldom that you get to work with one director more than once. I've worked with Clint Eastwood three times, but that's the only one that's happened with, simply because I adore his work.

Don't be different just for different's sake. If you see it differently, function that way. Follow your own muse, always.

My approach to acting is that I am totally intuitive. I read the script and I get it. If I don't get it, I can't do it.

My job, personally, is to do as much as I can to spread the warning that if we're not careful, it will end. The problem is, we don't think beyond our immediate needs.
