Art is something that nobody laughs at and nobody makes any money out of is the attitude, which I would dispute.

Lord, thy one-liners are as good as thy tricks. Thou art indeed an all-round family entertainer.

I love both [Johnny English and James Bond] actually. The action sequences are really exciting because you're getting to work with some brilliant crew and do some great stuff but you always get some magic when you're working with actors.

I'm not looking for anything other than an interesting role to play.

Certainly in the second film [Maigret's Dead Man], which is quite a more unpleasant and darker story, it's quite different in tone and feel.

I'm more critical of the films I make than anyone else.

Marketing is what gets you noticed.
