I'm not a sad person, upset the whole time, but I seem to be quite emotional.
I'm sure everyone has many types of music that they enjoy.
It seemed really easy waving your hands around, it wouldn't make any difference if you were moving it left or right, but I wanted to do it realistically. I think you can tell if someone doesn't know what they're doing.
I've never been a great cook.
I'm pretty rubbish, as we say in Britain, artwise, and I always envy people who can pick up something and even do just a little doodle of someone that looks vaguely like them. It's impressive.
Don't get too set on becoming an actor at an early age. I think that's where some people get into trouble. Acting becomes their life. I don't want that.
It was great to do August Rush and have all the challenges of playing that character, especially the American accent for the first time and also playing the guitar and the conducting I had to do.
There's never been a particular band that I've followed religiously. But I do tend to listen to sadder music.
Scary is good. Kids like going to a movie and being really scared rather than fake scared.
Johnny Depp is probably the best actor.
I think I've always been kept grounded. I've never been too involved with the movie business apart from just doing the film. I've never moved out to LA like a lot of people or been too drawn in by that.
Cinema Paradiso' is a fantastic film, I love that.
Every day is a different day in New York; there's always something new going on.
I like hot weather. I think it might be a bit better if England was a bit hotter.
