My heroes are Robert Duvall, Forest Whitaker, Ed Harris, Tommy Lee Jones, Anthony Hopkins and Sean Penn.

The life of a character doesn't just exist between action and cut.

I don't take a scene or word for granted.

Tarantino and Jackson is like Scorsese and DeNiro, and their silent communication.

I'm not good at telling a joke, but I can say a line in a certain way that makes people uncomfortable because they don't know whether to laugh or not, and I love that comedy.
