I have been in movies that I thought I wasn't very good in.

I wanted to make people feel the same way I feel when I see a good movie.

Every time you do a movie, it's important for your career, your reputation.

In my early days, I didn't know what a good film or a bad film was, and I was trying to make some money. As it happens I was lucky. I made some good films.

I think early in my career, I didn't choose films that were crappy films, necessarily, but I didn't go out and campaign for smaller, better roles.

The movies I've made at a certain time of my life were exactly right for the stage of my life, the frame of mind I was in at the time. Each character I've had to play has been me in that time in my life.

You are defined by who you are, by your choices in life, in all regards, not just in doing movies.

Even when I was a little kid, I always said I would be in the movies one day, and damned if I didn't make it.

I have a very simple definition of a good movie: a good movie makes you forget you're watching a movie.

There are so many factors that go into how you feel, as a performer, on any given movie, that it's really hard to identify which things are the things that help you be good, and which are the things that hinder you.
