In the studio system, things are expected of a film. By the first, second, third act, there's a generic language that comes out of the more commercial system.

I don't plan a career. That doesn't work for me. I just have to go with my gut.

What moves me in art is how we question who we are as people.

I'm sure acting is a deeply neurotic thing to do.

I like to keep fit, but I never lift very heavy weights...

I was grateful to have two weeks to shoot this one scene in Harry Potter. It's a big, big scene, but they have to deliver. And they have high expectations.

Like anything to do with trust, in any relationship it emerges and just the chemistry, vibe between two people an actor and a director. You just know whether this is someone I like to be with whose interaction with me I believe in.
