I never want to feel like the way that I see it isthe only way. Sometimes mistakes happen and that's better than whatyou thought the scene could be. You allow room for the possibilities.

I could never have imagined the films I've done and the people I've worked with when I was starting out; I certainly did not have a career path.

I never made a daring rescue, which is the story people want to hear. I did go to my share of fires.

Communication is the key, and it's one thing I had to learn-to talk to the actors. I was so involved with the visual and technical aspects that I would forget about the actors.

Nothing's really changed for me over the years. I like telling stories about people with problems. I can't really put it much simpler than that. Relationships are interesting to me. Not just between men and women but fathers and sons, brothers and sisters and friends.

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

I always find that it's when a script is not detailed, then I have to do more work as an actor.
