You make a choice to make music or be an actor, and people automatically think they can have access to your life.

You don't want to play the same roles or do the same genre.

When you get the right people together, writing music becomes very effortless.

The reason you do this stuff - comedy, plays, movies - is to be seized by something, to disappear in the service of an idea.

Making movies is difficult and you get disorientated sometimes - even when you're working with fantastic talent.

Music is the reason I'm doing movies; I do credit that. But acting is an escape route for me.

I don't feel that I have to control every aspect of things that I appear in. You learn a lot performing someone else's writing.

Making movies is a way of understanding myself and the world.

I think the buzz of acting is playing people different to you, and for me, that means traversing all genres.

Movies are extremely imitative of one another. Whatever works, people will try to do it.
