It's really nice to go down to an extremely low-budget movie, but that is very daring and courageous and try something different, where the roles usually are more complicated.

One of the beauties of 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' is the very delicate and strange relationship between the two main characters.

I started acting long before I decided to pursue it. I started acting as an amateur when I was a kid, but I wanted to become a diplomat. It was self-centered and weird, but I had this idea of going out in the world and solving conflicts and making the world a better place.

I treat everyone as equals. I can't work if I'm not having fun, and I can't have fun if not everyone is happy.

When you work with someone you don't quite know, you have to figure the director out and you can come up with ideas that are counter-productive.

Even the most despicable person is still a human being.

I love having 30 shots of every scene.
