A lot of movies are about life, mine are like a slice of cake.
Brad will tell you. He puts a movie on, I'm asleep in 10 minutes. I have no patience. But the kids love action movies with comedy, Jackie Chan and all that.
I foresee no possibility of venturing into themes showing a closer view of reality for a long time to come. The public itself will not have it. What it wants is a gun and a girl.
I just like to act and write and produce. To me, making movies is the ultimate goal.
I wanted to escape Small Town U.S.A. To dismiss the boundaries, to explore. My life experience came from watching movies, TV, and reading books and magazines. When your culture comes from watching TV...

Acting is not about being famous, it's about exploring the human soul.
I remember being on film sets when I was younger, and only men got to do the cool action movies. So I thought, 'Maybe I'll get to produce one day and get to do cool stuff too,' which is what happened...
No, but way before that, I've been doing little dances in movies for years. Yeah, that was an amazing chance. You know, at my age to be able to do a music dance video, very unusual.
You call that a kiss?
I rarely see one of the 'summer blockbuster' movies. I'd like to see a stronger focus on smaller, smarter movies.
The thing about the UK is we don't really make that many great movies.
I was making a lot of 8mm home movies, since I was twelve, making little dramas and comedies with the neighborhood kids.
That's the illusion of stillness. There is no secret. Only the implication of one by its possesor".
I don't have a lot of patience for boring arthouse movies.
