I went to Bournemouth Film School for 3 years.
It's difficult to get films made, especially films about poets.
I was always a fan of horror films as a kid.
Film actors are, by nature, more complicated than stage actors.
I love film; I'd love to do as many films as possible.
I love action films. It's my favorite genre.
I want to do television, film, music and designing. I want to do it all!
I've always listened to a lot of film music, actually.
Beautiful film music can be made relevant to any period.
So film music is something I absolutely wanna get involved in.
I went back to film work after Dobie. I went back to film work after Dobie.
Most of the film directors expect their actors to want to work fast.
I need to give you one last bit of advice in the off chance this rather extraordinary and enviable situation in which you find yourself is actually true- that somehow you've fallen deep down into a Cordova story. I stared back at him. Be the good guy...
I'm a Sufi Muslim, I would say. I believe in using the medium to create a good vibration because art is so important to society. Some projects I don't do because I feel that it's going to create a bad vibe. I don't do propaganda films that are anti a...

You can't make anything without making mistakes, do you know what I mean? Robert De Niro's in the 'Rocky and Bullwinkle' film. There's a lot of far greater people than me who have made mistakes in their careers... There's loads of people who have mad...
When I sit down to write, I don't think, 'OK, what is the next David O. Russell film I can write, or what is Harvey Weinstein going to want to buy?' Or even, 'What are filmgoers going to want.' I try to think, tell a good story. Just do what you do.
I loved doing 'Pennies from Heaven.' Because you have to understand that I'd been doing comedy for 15 to 20 years, and suddenly along came the opportunity to do this beautiful film. It was so emotional to me. I loved it. I don't think it was a good c...
I'm keeping my day job, because Poptropica is something that really energizes me. I'd love to create a TV series or write a film that's not in the 'Wimpy' universe, but I know it will be difficult to create something from scratch. But I love creating...
