That's what life is, it's the small struggles. You walk down the street for half an hour, you see half an hour of drama. You don't need convoluted plot lines. You don't need long-lost brothers. You don't need it's set on the future; it's set on the moon.

When you think of things like The Sopranos, The Wire, Damages, they are beating film on a regular basis. Most films are terrible. It's only the 2% that are good. There's things you can do on TV which you can't do on film. There is something about those episodic, serialisations that are grand and operatic.

I don't think humans are meant to be looked at when we're buying pants.

The best way to avoid criticism is never do anything ever. Or, do what you love, have a great life & let others spend their time criticising.

There are good and bad critics like good or bad artists. A good critic says why they didn't like it. A bad critic gives it away that they don't like you as a person. I quite like that as well, because it means that I've won.

I use people's real voices because I want realism. So often I mention the actors' physicality because I want it to be like a real documentary.

I think what makes us human is those choices - whether to tell the truth or not.
