I've sort of escaped my background, as people often do, through art and culture.

If you love a book you tend not to follow its surface value, you follow the other things in it.

I tend to score with songs from Western pop music.

I am a sci-fi fan.

I've always wanted to do a space movie.

I haven't got anything against films that are about the minutia of relationships or customs, but I love extremes.

I trained in the theatre.

I was brought up a very strict Catholic and I don't practice anymore or anything.

It's easy to like the most popular films, but I have a great fondness for 'A Life Less Ordinary'.

People say you never remember anybody who dies in movies, and it's true, you don't. You don't even remember people who disappear.
