Jung viewed Freud as a mentor, but he never wanted to be anybody's disciple.

[Captain Fantastic] it's a great story. It's one of the better scripts I've read, ever, as far as being great from beginning to end. It handles a variety of characters. You have six children who all stand on their own, they're all individuals. And it touches on a very real issue, which is the lack of cohesion and communication in America right now.

It's always interesting to play a character that obviously has a secret.

Any nominations a movie gets helps to raise the level of curiosity in the public, so in that sense awards and nominations are important.

I have a multicultural background, so I tend to have an open mind about things, and I find other cultures interesting.

Looking at acting, in the movies or the theater, and the way I like to look at it, it’s just an extension of childhood play… Kids play and imagine in a very intense fashion and they don’t need any director telling them “You really have to believe in it.” They believe in it completely.

When I make a movie, I don't break it down and analyze it. I could but it would get in the way of doing a job - on instinct based on all the research we did going in. you want to trust yourself and your director and your acting partners in the circumstances you're shooting. I don't like to have any kind of overview.
