My mum is incredibly intelligent.

Film's hard when you don't have any relationship with the director at all and you just show up. Then you really are just a gun for hire.

I didn't really buy LPs or go to concerts.

If all people are encouraged to actually see who they're coexisting with, or even if they're not coexisting with other people.It's like to look at the world you're in.

I'm probably more personal when I'm acting than at any other time. More open, more direct. Because it allows me to be something that I can't always feel comfortable with when I'm living my own life, you know? Because it's make-believe.

Directing is a really kind of amazing thing, because you're helping others and, in the middle of that, you have to worry about yourself.

I would definitely say pleasure is not happiness. Because I think I kill pleasure. Like I take too much of it in, and therefore make it un-pleasurable, like too much coffee, and you're miserable.
