Maybe every family is dysfunctional, and that's the only thing in common throughout the world.
I'm a very independent person, I love being alone, writing and doing music and stuff.
My experience is that relationships can be difficult, hard work. I love to be in a relationship.
It's easier for Europeans to give money to a movie that says a blow job is what brought down American democracy.
I think some people, when they get a certain ego, they lose sense of whatever.
People have their faults, but it doesn't prevent you from loving them.
I think I do find humor in disorder, and reality is disorder.
Few years ago, I said something about the Academy being very white male, which is the reality, and I was slashed to pieces by the media.
Feminists is something people hate above all. Nothing worse than being a woman in this [movie] business. I really believe that.
I sometimes wish I were African American because people don't bash them afterward. It's the hardest to be a woman.
Performing is the hardest thing. Even though I've done it for so many years, it's still exposing yourself. You suddenly become extremely vulnerable when you're on camera. You're filmed and you're being observed. It's a bit of a violation each time.
I think it's obsessions that a lot of people share, but they don't dare to talk about openly.
I actually love Scorsese comedies. He's an underrated comedy director. I think his comedies are some of the best comedies ever made.
I didn't really fit with other kids. I had problems in school all my life and problems with authority. But my parents never did drugs or anything. They just believed in freedom in the best sense of the word.
