My career seems to be a career of non-specific subjects which are all over the place.

Well, not totally because over the years I've probably done 2,700 commercials. So, I'm always ticking. And in a way that was a huge advantage because I was able to take my time choosing my film subjects because I wasn't relying on the fear of not being able to work.

And anyway, it's only movies. to stop me I think they'll ahve to shoot me in the head.

As I'm getting older, I want to make sure every film I do really counts.

Some people like to do everything always the same thing. That's another way: To do the same thing.

I spend a lot of my time just developing material; or the company does. That material can come from a book, can come from a newspaper, can come from a discussion and sometimes it can come from a script that got passed over and is floating around.

Everyone sniggered because I was going to do a sandal and toga movie. But I knew exactly how to do it and I know how to make Robin Hood.
