So, one way or another, I found myself in a few movies. I take it seriously when I'm on the set, but I don't take myself seriously as an actor.

I don't take myself too seriously. I think that's something so many actors and people in general tend to do.

What I like are films that take me seriously, that don't treat me as more stupid than I am.

I know that some actors take acting terribly seriously. I take it seriously in that if someone pays me to do it I know I have to deliver.

I have never taken myself that seriously as an actor.

I don't even take myself seriously, so how could I possibly take Hollywood seriously?

It's rare that movies can sort of capture the tone of life; movies always feel like they have to be one thing or another.

I think you have a responsibility to the people you're making movies with, and I take that very seriously. I don't want to let up and I don't want to let down.

Making movies has become such a golden ring, and it's all such a big business, that the rewards system has gotten totally out of whack. Suddenly, you're treated in a manner befitting someone who is actually an important person.
