If you act scared, your body produces adrenaline.

I always look for contradiction in a character.

As a child I loved ghost stories.

I was a really pretentious teenager.

My childhood was very colourful, and I am very good friends with both my,parents. We have no secrets.

Lentil dhal is the only thing I can cook.

It sounds trite, but I like telling stories.

"Twin Peaks" (1990) is my favorite American TV show.

I would say that maybe directors who act as well are easier with actors.

I used to have the most visceral response to having my photo taken. I,felt like instantly bursting into tears and running out of the room. I,hated all the attention, which is such a stupid thing for an actor to,say.

He was always going to be just who he is.

I love the solitary, romantic idea of writing.
