I was in Woody Allen's Stardust Memories in 1980. It was only a bit part and I didn't get to speak but I felt that I was in a real movie and heading where I had always wanted to be.

I have lots of favourite memories but I can't say that I have a favourite film.

I'd much rather be in a movie that people have really strong feelings about than one that makes a hundred million dollars but you can't remember because it's just like all the others.

A friend of mine, Neil Gaiman, had the film rights to his book 'Stardust' bought by producer Matthew Vaughn and suggested I adapt it for the screen.

There are some movies that I would like to forget, for the rest of my life. But even those movies teach me things.

I have memories of films that nobody ever saw, that I was very proud of, and those are still great memories.

I have loved movies as the number one thing in my life so long that I can't ever remember a time when I didn't.

Actually I did, because I saw the film like everyone else, ten years ago and I remembered some of it. I just wanted to see it, to kind of remember the tone a little bit.
