The films that I really enjoy now are films that are made by, for wont of a better word, mavericks.

I have to use the word 'insurgent' because I can't think of a better word right now.

I did 'Deathly Hallows' so my kids could get on the 'Harry Potter' set. They met Daniel Radcliffe, who was a darling and couldn't have been nicer to them so I'm a hero right now.

The Vatican has tried to condemn 'The Magdalene Sisters' as a pack of lies and that I've made it all up - I wish I was that good a dramatist - and in terms of public relations, that was the daftest thing they ever did.

There's a part of bohemia I love. The lack of prejudice, the lack of aggression, I love the lack, for the most part, of competitiveness. It's more peaceful.

In terms of popular cinema, 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest' is as near perfection as I can think of.
