I just got called Nigel.
Elijah Wood
I love romantic comedies. I love romantic movies. I'm kind of a sucker for them, and, sort of end up crying at the end of them all, like a child.

There's a real purity in New Zealand that doesn't exist in the states. It's actually not an easy thing to find in our world anymore. It's a unique place because it is so far away from the rest of the world. There is a sense of isolation and also being protected.
Elijah Wood
I actually got a crush on Anne Heche when I worked with her on Huckleberry Finn. It didn't work out.
Elijah Wood
I never wanted to be in a band because I love music too much to mess it up.
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
Dream the impossible because dreams do come true.
Elijah Wood
The other main difference between film and television is that you have the opportunity to flush out a character, over a longer period of time. Whereas with a film, you're confined to two or three hours, or whatever it may be.
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
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
It was so clear from the beginning - what [Macon Blair] wanted to make [in I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore].
