Jude [Law] is really good at playing an obsessive. He has a very watchable quality when he's on a quest for something.

I'm not precious about anything. The effort it took to get something means nothing to me in post. It means nothing to the audience. I'll chop limbs off. I'll put an arm where a leg should be. I'll do anything.

The ought to be a worldwide cultural taskforce that just stops you when you have ideas like combining The Red Desert with an armored car heist movie.

I'm not a snob. If I feel like there's a star that's the best person for that role, then that's who I get.

I'm probably more character-driven than plot-driven. It's rare for me to attach myself to an idea for a story.

People like Chris Nolan are shooting isolated sequences in IMAX. Those cameras are the size of a Volkswagen.

I'm always a little unnerved when I see a show that's set in the past that implies in any way that things were nicer then.
