Oh, it takes a lot for me to walk out of a film.

I generally don't walk out of films. If I start a book, and I don't love it by page 100, I will stop reading because it's just too much of a time commitment. But you never know with a movie what's going to turn around.

When I staged the play and narrated my story to the audience, people found it amazing that after facing so many hardships, I have gone on to do 482 films.

I turned down a lot of films.

I don't know - I haven't seen any of my movies after I finish them. I leave the editing room; I don't go back.

I probably haven't even seen ten of the films I've done. I don't get a joy out of it, and I don't go to the movies.

I think there are way too many films made, and I've probably made way too many films.

I haven't done as many films as I would have liked. A lot of my contemporaries have done more. I don't have 'I will be a movie star' emblazoned on anything, but I'd like do a bit more screen stuff and then when the time is right come back to theatre. When it is good, theatre takes a lot of beating both to watch and perform.

I think I've done 200 plays and 125 movies, so I've been very lucky to have made a living at acting.

I've cut myself out... I've cut scenes out that I was in and that's when you realize that you've got to make the best movie you can.
