I didn't know what types of movies I wanted to do. I want to do things that are different. I want to take my time with each role.

I just want to keep doing what I'm doing and hopefully people will watch my movies.

I grew up when I was 15 when I had my first opportunity in movies. I watched every great movie for a year and a half, and since then I've asked myself how I can emulate such artistry. That's really my motivation. I want to do something as good as my heroes have done.

I like to think the movies that I've picked have something worthwhile to say. Something relevant.

I loved old black and white movies, especially the Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers musicals. I loved everything about them - the songs, the music, the romance and the spectacle. They were real class and I knew that I wanted to be in that world.
