I sympathize with every kitchen porter.

The kitchen oven is reliable, but it's made us lazy.

You can empathize without sympathizing.

I go into meetings with some film-makers and they literally have nothing to say, they're almost bored by their own material. I'd rather work with people who are very passionate and very animated about what they want to do. People who just want to tell stories.

I love the old Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly movies; they're so beautiful to look at. It's such a shame we don't make them anymore. Although, I don't know how you could make tap dancing current and topical.

I don't take any photographs. I travel a lot by myself, and I feel weird taking photos on my own.
