I started watching actual movies when I was pretty young.

Superstar was made so early in my career I had nothing to do with it at all. The first time I saw it was the opening screening.

I think people like to see the lives of artists that are legends. They always go through the dark periods and I think just as humans we like to see that and them coming out of it. I love those kinds of movies.

I've done a lot of films that have become iconic, not necessarily because of me.

I've never considered myself as a legend - just a simple man with heart.

I was 18 years old when I booked 'Youth in Revolt,' and it was my first movie, and I was starring in that movie - and even then, I didn't feel like I had made it.

When I was younger I was obsessed with 'Star 80,' and it's just a great movie - I think I saw it three times in the theater.

I was not a kid who watched every movie. I watched a very small number of movies over and over again.

It sounds so negative of me to say, but I don't feel like there were many coming-of-age films when I was growing up. I think that when I was a teenager, I felt really misrepresented in the teenage roles that I was watching onscreen. Especially in women.

When I was about 10 or 11, I realised that people made movies; until then, I had thought they just happened.
