I'm more relaxed about how the editing process will create a performance and that, in a way, gives me a sense of freedom.

Most films are rooted in a book or a comic strip, but I don't go out there saying I want to do adaptations.

You're meant to be playing the distillation of evil, which can be anything.

Having gone through editing process, I can see that in actor's faces there's point where they're not managing their performance and that's, I think, the best place to be. You've done the homework, you've learned the lines, at that point you just sort of let it out.

Going to the movies was a big event in my youth. My father would be the initiator - he'd have me put on a jacket to see a film.

Awards are like applause, and every actor likes to hear applause.

God is not anything human. God is a force, God is chaos, God is unknown. God is terror and enlightenment at the same time.
