I think people seem to sort of associate me with danger. And I don't see that at all.
Anybody doing something brings something to it.
As an actor there are no drawbacks.
Every country has their problems.
There are many, many benefits to being known for whatever it is you do. To deny that would be sort of asinine and vulgar.
I still have a temper, I suppose.
I've done quite a few big American films.
And if you say a word about this over the radio, the next wings you see will belong to the flies buzzing over your rotting corpse.
It's a little bit hard to have personal things subject to public scrutiny, and it's a pressure that other people aren't under, but then they're under a lot of pressures that we're not under.
