There's a joke in the movie...it's got a fairytale ending, and this is a spoiler: Donald Trump does contract HIV. I think people are upset about that, mainly because they feel the reputation of AIDS has been destroyed by associating it with Donald Trump.

For a number of years in England nobody had any idea what I looked like.

The worrying thing is there's so much latent hatred of the guy [Donald Trump] and this guy isn't even president yet.

I think if you come from a history of persecution you have to develop a sense of humour.

I've never really done any interviews as myself.

Don't listen to me. I'm not a politician. I know nothing about politics. But people are cheering when something very bad happens to him [Donald Trump]. So that's got to make you think before voting for him.

I have been incredibly fortunate to be able to work with good directors and for me it's not really a plan each time I'm on a set with one of them; I think about what I can learn from them because I'm very aware that my filmmaking skills are very modest.
