But now I wish I could back to Stockholm to make international films there.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
This worldwide spread of recognition is insane. I was brought up in a small country. If you made a Swedish film that just got into a film festival somewhere, that was like the biggest thing you could wish for.
I'd like to do one European film a year.
Sweden was very nice. I did a lot of television. I wrote, directed and was in a lot of television there.
I loved movies and went to see every movie I could in Finland.
I think my sweet spot is to make personal films on not-too-big budgets and also make other people's films, bringing productions to Iceland, upping the business here.
Yeah, I'd be happy to go back to Mexico or Japan to make another film.
Movies give me an opportunity to go places. I'm not only a Swede but an American, not just a man of my time, but I've been living 2,000 years ago-and not just in a new country, America, but in the Holy Land, too.
My plan was to stay in Canada to make films.
My agent in Sweden used to send off interview tapes but I decided to take it upon myself and come to London to visit casting directors which is when things first started taking off for me. I love Sweden but the industry out here is quite small so when I was given the chance to go internationally I took it.
Theater is very much the world I'd like to get back to, particularly in New York, both as an actor and director.
