It's just a moment that doesn't feel 100-percent truthful, a kind of a square peg/round hole situation. Which is why the preproduction on a movie is so important, because you can't just push those through.

I think the reason that people fall in love with Sandra Bullock is that she doesn't seem to know it in the same way. She doesn't seem to know it in a way that other gorgeous people maybe would. I think that's what makes her so accessible.

I firmly believe that you can't manufacture chemistry with anyone, let alone a kid.

I don't get a lot of romantic comedy scripts.

I think theres escapist moviemaking, and we want to be captivated and taken away. If its done right, you can craft an incredible film. There have been superhero films that I think are brilliant pieces of art.

This movie [ Buried] is strange, because it's such an extraordinary situation, both as a character and as an actor. Both of us are going through an extraordinary situation at the same time, and it was odd. It was weird not having a co-star to cut away to for the most part. It just forces you to never have a deficit in the performance.

Everyone thinks their baby is a genius. People find it delightfully refreshing when I tell them, My baby? Totally average. Like, 100 percent average.
