I Love The Potter Films.

Listen, Acting Is Not Surgery, It's Entertainment. You're Doing Something To Hopefully Move People, To Make Them Laugh, To Transport Them. But Actors Are Vulnerable, And The Reason We're Vulnerable Is That We're Always Trying To Recreate Human Behaviour.

A Lot Of People Think Theatre Must Be Much Harder Work Than Film, But Anything Histrionic Or Superfluous Gets Seen On Camera So You Have To Work To Distil It Into A Complete Sense Of What's True.

I'm Fully Aware That I Am A Lucky, Lucky Man. This Oscar Belongs To All Of Those People Around The World Battling Als. It Belongs To One Exceptional Family, And I Will Be It's Custodian And I Promise You That I Will Polish Him, And Wait On Him Hand And Foot.

They're Such Hierarchical Things, Film Sets, They're Sort Of Mini Societies. Often They're Incredibly Political Places.

I'm Trying To Buy A House And Set Some Sense Of Roots Because Otherwise You're Constantly Chasing One Job After Another, And You Look Back And You've Had All These Very Extraordinary Experiences With Extraordinary People, But There's Not A Line Of Continuity To It.
