It's an interesting combination: Having a great fear of being alone, and having a desperate need for solitude and the solitary experience. That's always been a tug of war for me.

I fantasize about having a manual job where I can come home at night, read a book and not feel responsible for what will happen the next day.

I had to take my makeup off at work every night. I wasn't allowed to do it at home because my mom said that when your work day is done, you're done with work.

I didn't have any ambition to produce big mainstream popcorn movies.

I don't know if I see myself as really an action hero, but I like doing physical movies and I like doing movies where the writing is very lean.
