As A Drama Student I Got Into

'nil By Mouth' Was A Bit Autobiographical, But As I Always Pointed Out At The Time, That's Not My Dad.

I Drank For About 25 Years Getting Over The Loss Of My Father, And I Took The Anger Out On Myself. I Did A Good Job At Beating Myself Up Sometimes.

And Costume Is So Important For An Actor. It Absolutely Helps To Get Into Character; It's The Closest Thing To You, It Touches You. Some Actors Like To Go Into Make-up And Then Put Their Clothes On, But I Like To Dress First; That's My Routine.

I Don't Go To Premieres. I Don't Go To Parties. I Don't Covet The Oscar. I Don't Want Any Of That. I Don't Go Out. I Just Have Dinner At Home Every Night With My Kids. Being Famous, That's A Whole Other Career. And I Haven't Got Any Energy For It.

I Took A Bit Of A Back Seat, I Had Kids And I Wanted To Focus On Them. There's That Period In The Late '90s, The Early 2000s, Where I Didn't Do A Great Deal.
