To me, Darth Vader is the epitome of evil.

A lot of times in movies, especially in sequels, the characters become caricatures and just sort of improv machines and joke machines, rather than people you can actually connect to.

Star Wars was magnificent, but you could tell Darth Vader's ships were glued together.

But in film you always watch situations or stories that you really have no relation to. A lot of times just because there's no personal connection doesn't mean you can't connect with the film or the characters in the film.

You know, people really don't understand what actors do.

Actors are always looking for the eyes of the other actors because you need help and you need connection.

I hate to tell you this, but you will never actually go to a galaxy far, far away and encounter Darth Vader. That's science fiction; it isn't going to happen.

With a lot of actors, you've got to chip through the surface to see who the real person is.

I can't get my head around the fact that the technology of the first two movies, which are forty years prior to Star Wars, is so much better than any technology they had in Star Wars!

I like connecting with people, and that's what good art is: a point of connection. There's nothing better, on stage or on film.
