No matter how bad the individual, everybody has reasons for why they do what they do.
The customer is not always right.
I don't need to worry about that, that's always there on a slow simmer. The muscle I have to work on is being more present.
It opens Wednesday or Friday.
Ever since I saw sexy Beast I've been trying to get the cockney thing down.
After many years of self-flagellation, I've realised that beating myself up doesn't get me anywhere.
I still have anonymity, which is great. I can go out anywhere I want and no one ever recognizes me.
I find it really hard to even read another script while shooting.
I had a job at this French restaurant, and I hated it. I don't like serving; I don't like getting people ketchup.
When I was 18 I was an emotional wreck and I couldn't imagine having to deal with some kind of fame.
I do like dating cynics - they tend to be incredibly funny.
As an actor it's easy to be so self-critical, saying to yourself: "Am I good enough? Am I good looking enough? Am I smart enough?" Yet here I am, so I'm lucky.
I took part in a theatre festival in Massachusetts two summers after I graduated from college. Then I was in Los Angeles thinking: "I'm going to go to New York." I'd decided that I would not have a chance of a film career, so I was about to make the move. I bought a plane ticket and found a place to live in New York, packed my bags and of course the universe "told me" that I was not meant to go. Suddenly, a week before I was supposed to leave, I had three job offers and one of them was my first movie.
My brain's not sharp enough to come up with a witty comment.
