I Enjoy Playing Characters Where The Silence

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 Was Never Really That Interested In The Punk Movement. I Was A Blues Guy: I Liked Motown, James Brown.

Being A Good Director Is Knowing Sometimes When Not To Say Something.

Your Own Barometer Is All You Have To Go By, And Often What Makes A Good Director Is Knowing When Not To Say Something. On Occasions You Can Find Yourself On A Film Set Where The Person Who Is Wearing The Director's Hat Is Only Trying To Justify His Position.

People Imagine That Actors Are Being Offered Everything And You Are Not. So Things Come In And Sometimes There Are Things That I Want And Can't Get A Meeting On, Or Go To A Different Actors.
