The technology available for film-making now is incredible, but I am a big believer that it's all in the story.
The trade magazine and all was banned in my house. The first time I read a film magazine was when I was 18.
Any time a new horror film comes out that looks appealing, I'm always excited to go see it.
When I watch films or tv that I've done, I get very restless and tend to not sit still.
I really learned how to act on camera through 'Power Rangers' because I hadn't done a lot of film and TV.
I prefer film to the stage. I always like the rehearsal better than I like performing.
I'm over there filming in South Africa now, and two in five are HIV-positive now. Not many people know that.
I do think that the emotional weight of 'Biutiful' has blinded some viewers to the beauty and complexity of the film.
Disney was a family film studio. I was supposed to be their young, leading man. After they found out I was involved with someone, that was the end of Disney.
I want to be remembered for Swiss Family Robinson and Old Yeller. I think Swiss is probably my favorite film.
From my experience as an actor, choreographer, action director, and producer, I understand the elements and the dynamics of being a film maker.
Film acting has been a very pure experience, because you have to give the purest form of yourself as an artist.
Most of all, I really wanted to become a filmmaker, and I've used every acting experience to just turn it into film school.
In terms of my own film experience, I'm definitely used to morose and very heavy, heavy dramas.
Any film, or to me any creative endeavour, no matter who you're working with, is, in many cases, a wonderful experience.
That's why I like fast film. It gives you more freedom to light more naturally.
I believe there are more films that involve love and forgiveness than violence, but they often seem fake and are almost embarrassing to watch.
When I was filming 'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' in America, for a couple of weeks beforehand we would always fit in a family holiday in California.
I have three kids and a wife, and any moments that aren't dedicated to working on this film in some way, or family, are immediately reserved for sleep.
Most of the musical film work that I have done has been in this realm of what I think of as real family entertainment.
My family don't watch a lot of what I do. Films are a bit too arty-farty for them, certainly the ones I do!
