night reality upset
In reality, the main thing that keeps me awake at night is probably the destruction of the planet that's what gets me pretty upset.
kids green easy
Working with a green screen is easy. It's just like being a kid. But it's not nearly as satisfying.
important turns whatever-happens-happens
You never know how things will turn out. And you can't really say it turned out wrong. Whatever happens, happens. The important thing is that you followed your gut.
passion luxury trying
I was offered more work after the Oscar. When I was younger, I would take whatever I was offered because it was money and work and experience. In a way, choosing is the hard part. I know that's a luxury problem, but it's true. I try to go where passion takes me.
men
You would never say to a man, 'do you like playing strong men?' You just wouldn't say that.
aspects happening
I think there are two aspects to ageing: there's the physical side and what's happening inside.
life nice people polite time
In real life, I'm polite and nice all the time. It's fun to play people who aren't. It's escapism.
I think I'm very curious about other people. I like to sit and eavesdrop, you know.
became comedy genre obsessive
I've done a lot of drama, and comedy was the one genre I was not being offered. So I became obsessive about getting one.
sit
In therapy you sit down; in analysis you lie down.
maybe people putting spend twice
People want to imagine I spend every night going to premieres and putting on frocks and getting into limos, and yet I do that maybe twice a year, if that.
films lots successful
I'm very successful and do lots of films but I've never actually done anything extraordinary.
people
Some people like having eyes upon them and I don't.
characters drawn good
I'm very drawn to characters who are very flawed. I'm less interested in characters who are just good or bad, because to me then they're not real people.
