I can't do anything else. So if this falls through, I'm screwed.

I will watch everything that Cary Grant did, or Kubrick made or Bergman.

I started off on stage because it was the only work I could get. I haven't been back for 11 years. I think any stage experience is good experience, as far as being an actor is concerned.

The first role I ever did... I played a Nazi skinhead.

I miss my family, and I like being a tourist when I go back.

Everyone is an abused child, if you think about what governments do.

Extra work sucks. Get out quick.

I don't care to analyze acting. On the other hand there is a fascination because distributors are putting out British films. You get films here with great performances you'll never see again. Why compare. We should go after the businessmen.

I try and take the family with me everywhere I can. It's getting harder the more kids I have. But celibacy sucks.
