I try and do films I know I'm going to enjoy watching as well as being in.

When you do bigger films, the financiers take more risks.

It's difficult to get films made, especially films about poets.

Sometimes you just can't walk away from films you're offered, like the Dylan Thomas thing.

Sometimes people say to you that you should try to be in a bigger film, but it's the way it pans out.

In terms of jumping into a character's skin, I try to immerse myself in the role as much as possible to bring me closer to them. All I do is what's required to achieve what I want to achieve.
