The whole process of making movies and writing screenplays is visceral and intuitive.

You step forward and make it real for a start. You choose a sensible moment in history. Funnily enough, England was bankrupt and the moment is the death of Richard The Lionheart... Richard takes an arrow in the neck collecting a small debt from a small castle on his way home from the Crusades because he's penniless.

I was always amazed about how much I could finally squeeze into a thirty second commercial.

Some actors - you work with them once and don't even think about working with them again.

Life isn't black and white. It's a million gray areas, don't you find?

I watched Someone to Watch Over Me the other night. I thought it was a really good movie. It's a great movie.

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