When you cast somebody you cast them not only for... I look for an inherent kind of quality. You are going to be shooting 14 hour days and you are going to be tired. You are going to not necessarily be able to conjure armor or a façade every single moment.
It's a bad day when you don't get the work done that you need to get done or you don't get it done to the satisfaction.
Entertainment has to come hand in hand with a little bit of medicine.
Take ownership of every decision you make because you will be hold responsible for the film, whether good or bad.
I like characters who don't change, who don't learn from their mistakes.
I don't know how to depict intelligence.
I loved Luke Skywalker and I loved Darth Vader and I loved watching them work it out.
I learn the most from making my own mistakes.
Perfume is pretty good because nobody has to hold the product by their face or use it.
I have demons you can't even imagine.
How do you shoot a 150-day movie? You shoot it one day at a time.
I was a disinterested student.
There are some movies I can watch over and over, never get sick of.
Oh, yeah, I love DVD's. I don't have what you'd call an extensive collection, maybe a couple of hundred or so. But I have something on almost all the time.
