The thing about films is you learn new stuff all the time. You think you can get to a point where you've got it all down. But then another, different situation arises.

If I don't get the goose-bump factor when I'm reading it than I can't do it.

Some people have got advice, some people have got horror stories. I like people that look you in the eye with a glow and say "It's gonna be cool."

Sport for me is about inspiring kids. Here's the rules, here's the play area, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. This is all about teaching kids how to approach life. If we're not playing sport to benefit kids, I'm not really sure why we play sport.

I want to make movies that pierce people's hearts and touch them in some way, even if it's just for the night while they're in the cinema; in that moment, I want to bring actual tears to their eyes and goosebumps to their skin.

Some of the things you read you get an immediate reaction to so I've stopped reading things now. I do worry about my family though. Some people do try some nasty things to get at them and try and get a reaction from them.

I'm not one of those fellows that is just going to have a psuedo-middling relationship.
