I'm slightly unsure as to what my goal is. I just keep doing jobs.

In L.A., unless you've just won an Oscar or you're Mr. Studio Head, no one talks to you. Even at parties.

You would never say to a man, 'do you like playing strong men?' You just wouldn't say that.

I didn't think the teachers had the right to tell me what to do. I would just disobey, talk in the classroom, get very bad grades.

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.

I once made the mistake of telling someone that I always wanted to be a barrister - and I got a pitying look, flollowed by an article along lines 'the poor little tart thinks she could get a proper job, but look at the way she photographs'
