I have done some tacky films, but then they were all my decisions, and I'm happy to have made those because they have made me who I am.

Kissing onscreen is the worst thing in the world. I'm OK with lovemaking scenes, but I hate kissing.

For me chilling out is when I can stay at home, order food from outside and watch a film with my friends. Listening to music and watching films are my idea of perfect relaxation.

Most detective story readers are an educated audience and know there are only a certain number of plots. The interest lies in what the writer does with them.

There's never been anything I didn't love that I didn't connect with on a personal level because, to some degree, I projected upon it.

My feeling for reality TV isn't ironic, guilty, or apologetic. Reality TV is one of the few remaining modes of popular entertainment in which characterization is permitted as plot.
