Sometimes my interest in working on a film is not always dictated specifically by the character. Sometimes it's simply about wanting to be a part of a vision that I love, or a script that I love. I find exciting and gratifying.

I just got called Nigel.
Elijah Wood
You've got major artists releasing albums on their own and eschewing the major system. I think that breeds excitement and creativity.
Elijah Wood
I think being different, going against the grain of society is the greatest thing in the world.
Elijah Wood
[Macon Blair] wrote a beautiful - once it was kicking off and we were gonna make the movie - he sent me this really beautiful document on Tony [from I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore ]. It was like ruminations. Maybe this ... I don't know ... And I loved it.
Elijah Wood
[Sundance] still feels significant. I don't think you can help but come here and not feel that sense of history and its significance in influencing film. And I think it still does. Some of that is based on history, but it's also based on really incredible programmers who are showcasing such an incredible variety of cinema.
Elijah Wood
It was kind of unique and great to have two films coming out within a week. It certainly was a different experience for me.
Elijah Wood
So, as much as it is about this continuing war, the reinstated draft, and their individual views, it's really sort of a deeply human tale, and a character study as well.
Elijah Wood
The war is definitely in the background, only referred to in radio news blips and conversation. I think, ultimately, this film is about the choices these guys are faced with. In that way, I think this is a more personal story about their friendship, about the reaction that they have when they're essentially faced with death, to a certain degree.
Elijah Wood
The worst kind of lying I've ever done is keeping things from people.
Elijah Wood
I'm not a star!!! A star is nothing but a ball of gas!!!
Elijah Wood
It feels kind of good to be [on Sundance]. There is a sense of unification and community and voices rising together, and that all feels good.
Elijah Wood
I just can't imagine that people would stand for it. People are wanting to potentially elect someone who will get our troops out, so at this stage, if the draft was reinstated, I just think that people would have none of it.
Elijah Wood
We all deal with a certain amount of stress, on a day-to-day basis. I probably smoke too many cigarettes, which isn't a very good thing. I don't have any extraordinary coping mechanism. I certainly don't talk to a dog.
Elijah Wood
[Sundance] still feels like an incredible place for championing emerging voices and art.
Elijah Wood
It's always nice when you get a chance to actually work with the other actor. It just brings the scene to life, in a way that's not as easy to replicate on your own.
Elijah Wood
If you cut off your arm instead of going 'spurt, spurt, spurt' wouldn't it, like, go nuts? Or would it go with the beat of your heart?
Elijah Wood
A solid base for any comedy is just honesty and truth, and it coming from a real place. As surreal as this show gets and is, ultimately, we're dealing with a character that most can't see the way that I can see it.
Elijah Wood
The prospect of being able to work on a Kaufman film with him directing was just too good to be true.
Elijah Wood
So much time is wasted on trying to be better than others.
Elijah Wood
I suppose I've been working for a long time, so I've seen all kinds of filmmaking. I can fit into anything, and it doesn't feel that weird or that fascinating.
