Eccentric doesn't bother me. 'Eccentric' being a poetic interpretation of a mathematical term meaning something that doesn't follow the lines - that's okay.

People watch movies - and it's vague ideas, it's vague notions, but people pick up on these things, that they are supposed to think certain ways or that they're not supposed to think, basically, and they don't.

I like to eat and the only thing I've ever been addicted to in my life is sugar.

In the past, I've never tried to discount or stop what people are saying because on some levels I find it interesting.

I like getting older. When you're in your twenties you're really forging for your future. Things take shape later on.

I still have a reputation as an eccentric. But the fact is that audiences probably mix up my roles with me as a person.

You would think, in an ideal world, that if you were in a really good film and did a really good job, whether it was a big film or not, you would get hired a lot but that is not my experience.

Realism is always subjective in film. There's no such thing as cinema verite. The only true cinema verite would be what Andy Warhol did with his film about the Empire State Building - eight hours or so from one angle, and even then it's not really cinema verite, because you aren't actually there.

But there's a difference between having artistic interests and being psychotic. That's more than a fine line of differentiation, and I do see that a bit too much.
