When you have rubbish stuff coming your way, you have to let go.

I believe that everyone has a right to have an opinion about things or people, and fortunately, I have been lucky to have heard usually good things about myself. However, I must admit that people can be quite critical about your role also.

My career choices aren't based on the popularity of my character; I have never intended to capitalise on my fan base.

With respect to keeping your sanity, the more you are dedicated to your job, the more you think about it. And there is so much to think about for the director.

I've never chosen or rejected a role because of money.

The forties, seventies, and the nineties, when money was scarce, were great periods, when the art world retracted but it was also reborn.

This is the profession I chose, and you really learn to save your money because you never know how it's going to go, but you still want to get out there and work.

I was kind of burned out, a little jaded, and just sort of disillusioned by all the 'Mighty Duck' movies and everything just being about making money and not really caring about scripts anymore.
