People think 'Performance' blew my mind... my mind was blown long before that.

Performance' gave me doubts about my way of life. Before that, I had been completely involved in the more bawdy side of the film business. But after that, everything changed.

Childhood is so important. Without a loving one, you're vulnerable throughout your life. We're all the things our parents are - the good and the not so good. Thankfully, I have a wonderful wife who's a brilliant mother.

There's often an assumption you're more privileged if you belong to a family with people who have made a success.

I'm very emotional, very explosive, very temperamental.

I'm lucky I've been able to spend a lot of time with my family.
