Cosmo Brown: You have to show a movie at a party. It's a Hollywood law.
Obviously there's something very seductive about movies, which can be attractive in a bad way if you're doing them for the wrong reasons - for money, or for fame.
In movies, images cost - if you want a big image, it takes more money.
It's inconceivable to some people that that wouldn't be the sexiest thing to do in the whole world: to be a movie star, and make money, and be pampered, and whatever.
I tend to make low-budget movies but, yeah, I make more money than I ever thought I would make.
Generally, I don't like to walk out of a movie. It's like a relationship - you want to see it to the end; otherwise, you won't know if you left early or not.
I feel very meditative when I ride. A horse does not know whether my movie is a hit or a flop or what is happening in my relationship.
Mind you, Roman Holiday - which is kind of a romantic comedy - is one of my favorite films, and I think Audrey Hepburn is absolutely phenomenal in that movie.
It's very difficult to have any kind of romantic feelings for a movie where you know exactly what's going to happen in the first five minutes.
I said 'Brian, no one is going to respect me as a mother after this.' He said, 'oh no, yes they will, this is a movie, don't worry about it.' But they're not.
Every movie that I've had to really knock down the door for has been an enormous success for me. Not just like a financial success but a real personal success.
If you think of movie studio executives, say, as society, then I root for the independent producers.
Providing 'freemium' cloud storage to society is not a crime. What will Hollywood do when smartphones and tablets can wirelessly transfer a movie file within milliseconds?
I spent most of my high school years on movie sets and I'd have like one teacher, which was really bad.
I started in the theater when I was 10, so I grew up in the theater and was very used to that, but I love movies and television, also, obviously.
So much of movie acting is in the lighting. And in loving your characters. I try to know them, and with that intimacy comes love. And now, I love Voldemort.
I love the ending of a movie where two people end up together. Preferably if there's rain and an airport or running or a confession of love.
I think all movie love scenes are hard because you can't truly be as intimate as you would be with anyone you're truly with, and everyone's watching you.
I love doing action and stuff; the problem is usually action movies are not that interesting. Also as I get older I feel like there's less opportunities for me.
I would love to play Simon Cowell in a movie - heck, I would love it. It would be my dream role.
I find playwriting really painful. I love it, or I wouldn't do it, but I don't love the theater as much as I love movies.
