In the beginning, it wasn't even a question of deciding I'm going to do independent film and not commercial films - I wasn't being offered any commercial films, and there wasn't an independent scene.

I don't think about the characters I choose to play, analytically or consciously.

It's always fun to get to do independent film because I believe that that's the life blood of film. It's about writers and directors who truly have their own vision, and that's hard.

My favorite review described me as the cinematic equivalent of junk mail. I don't know what that means, but it sounds like a dig.

I've never had a grand plan. I've only just tried to keep open to many different possibilities, have fun and work with people who are passionate about what they do.

The trend now is to shoot in Canada because it's cheaper, and they don't care what the location is.

I did stand-up. I loved George Carlin and Steve Martin.
