guy stuff looks
The stunt guys are absolutely brilliant, but all this stuff [a scene] always looks better when you do it yourself.
thinking wife car
I think women are great drivers. To be honest, I've only been in one car accident - one of my best friends, his wife was driving. She went into oncoming traffic, our car flipped almost four times. I didn't even have time to put on a seat belt, because they'd just picked me up.
air decision needs
I'm always in awe of directors because they're just holding so much stuff in the air. They've got so many decisions that they need to be making and they have to have the complete overall look of what the piece of artwork is.
regret believe intuition
You must believe in your own instincts and your own instincts at any particular time and believe that they were the right ones for any given situation. So, there's no point ever of kind of regretting something because you can't properly remember the exact circumstances in which you were playing out this particular scene. You have to believe in your intuition and your instinct at that moment.
thinking should
You should always think about things that excite you and that you can learn from.
regret thinking knowing
It's a very, very exciting time, but you can't help thinking or not quite knowing how it's seen from the outside. You're constantly in a state of terror or regret, not quite knowing how things are going to pan out, or whether you've made the right decisions. But, maybe that's just what it's like. Maybe that's just the life of it.
challenges roles different
I need something different [roles], always something just slightly different, that pushes you and challenges you.
growing-up thinking racing
I think you grow up wanting to be a racing driver. Then it dawns on you that it's not going to happen.
thinking littles looks
I've always been astonished by how wonderful he [Timur Bekmambetov] makes something look for so little. I think he shoots action like no one else.
worry want kind
You want to know if anyone's going to go see your film. You shouldn't worry about it or get hung up on it. So yea, you kind of monitor it.
morning hair looks
I look like a turnip with hair in the morning!
rage
I suppose theres an anger in all of us. Some hidden rage that you keep at bay.
choices different answers
So, you just have to keep pushing yourself with regards to the choices you make, to make sure they're very different from one another, I suppose. I don't know. I don't have any answer for any of that. I can't help but just say yes to lots of work that comes my way because I'm so relieved and so desperately excited and pleased that anyone could possibly offer me any work anyway.
country good-life iraq
The people in Iraq lived essentially good lives. They had brilliant health and education systems. Saddam actually created an incredible infrastructure in a very difficult country, but they were a Mafia family. If you said anything against that regime or that family you would be killed instantly.
