memories fun thinking
I'm very 'spur of the moment'. I'm always trying to think of fun things to do to create a memory.
opportunity thinking black
I'm proud of 'Black Hawk Down' because I think it told a provocative story and it was honest. It could have had more opportunity to tell both sides of the story, but I'm still proud of it.
brother thinking littles
I'm a lot older than my little brothers and sister, so I think I grew up babysitting them.
flirting thinking work-out
You know, I'm not really any good at working out when people are flirting with me. And I think I'm too flirtatious with people I'm trying not to flirt with! What I am good at is making people feel uncomfortable. I don't want to but it always ends up happening!
thinking appreciate interesting
I do a lot of weird movies that maybe you don't like and I experiment a lot but maybe I do appreciate the process and I think my greatest joy in this business is that I have had the ability to screw up in a lot of really interesting films!
stars thinking race
You think that if you are the best actor, you deserve the most or if you are the biggest star, you deserve the most. That race just isn't important to me.
independent thinking attention
Honestly, I guess if you looked at my CV, I've been doing independent movies since I started. I think that I kind of took a few steps back from Hollywood as soon as it all started to come my way because I wasn't quite ready for the attention.
writing thinking light
If I was painting or writing, I wouldn't veer away from things because they seemed unsavoury to me. So as an actor, I kind of think the same way. I should do things that are different and interesting and shed light on the craziness of the world.
thinking might my-family
I'm not all that demanding, I don't think. My family might think otherwise.
being-happy teenager thinking
I don't think there's a problem with being a teen idol, if that happens to me, I'll be happy to deal with it.
thinking people want
I admire when people take the harder path, not because they are masochistic and want to beat themselves up, but because you actually kind of learn more and I think you grow more.
thinking taste
I think that just your tastes change as you get older and I think they'll continue to change.
action brave complex everybody heroic hollywood hurt movies suit trying
Everybody was trying to put me in action movies and heroic roles, and I wanted to find more complex things. They just didn't suit my taste, so I thought, 'OK, I have to be brave enough to say no.' And for a while, that hurt me immeasurably in the Hollywood world.
certain check computer itunes limited
My abilities on the computer are limited pretty much to iTunes and YouTube. I check my email as much as anybody, but I'm more old-fashioned in a certain sense.
