Every film I do, I'm involved with from the very conception of the project.
I'm hard to pin down. I tend to look different in films.
The films that influenced me were so disparate that there's almost no pattern.
I actually enjoy wearing the corsets required in some period films.
When you do bigger films, the financiers take more risks.
I never look at the size of the film when I'm looking for a part.
Boldness, sensuality and an unapologetic way of showing things, that is part of my films.
Sure I'm leaving the Bee Gees. I'm going into films.
If you are going to do a film properly you have to give yourself completely to it.
In Korean films there is only really a strong tradition of melodramas.
A film cannot make it into the culture without the support of critics.
It's become very popular in contemporary films to have the twist ending.
Isn't that the definition of a star? Someone who can get a film made?
I mean I like most of the films that I've seen that I've been in.
When you see period films, it tends to often be with older actors.
I'm a pretty cliche actor in that I hate watching myself on film.
I've done a lot of films that all have been pretty edgy.
'Shogun' was a mini-series, so even though it went on television, we filmed it like a movie.
Of course, I saw 'The Social Network,' which is a beautiful film.
The public's nerves are raw and edgy. You have to be discreet and understanding about the films you are showing.
I look back, and I've got a couple of films, and I'm happy.
