Mostly in movies an actor has to come to a mark, an X, and deliver his line - but that's so artificial, that's not how people really behave.

When I was writing 'Withnail,' I was so busted flat that I had one lightbulb that I would carry around the house with me. I mean, really. No furniture, no money, and I was hoping to be an actor, but I could never get a job.

But I don't look like Colin Farrell, I don't behave like Colin Farrell, and I do different movies than Colin Farrell.

My problem with being an actor was that I was far too shy to actually do it.

As an actor I'm part of a long line of character people you can take back to the silent movies.

I'm mostly vegetarian.
