I hate it when women fight aging with plastic surgery or fashion choices. There's this arrogant youth worship in our society.

I certainly was an actor and then I drifted more towards writing and directing.

But all actors go through the process, it's hit and miss, you have achievement and failure.

I believe in singularity in relationships because you've got to have trust on both sides.

Villains with a conscience have this sad realization of who they are, and the monster they've become — there's a sense of regret. So at the end of these movies there's a dramatic resonance that really stays with the audience.

And there have certainly been movies I wanted to be in and milestones I wanted to surpass that did not happen.

If you are truly fearless as a performer, than you don't fear kids or dogs.
