If you think of the ice caps as the fridge of our planet, if your fridge at home died, the food you eat would go rotten, and you'd starve.
You can drive an SUV, but there's a balance. If you do that, maybe use energy-efficient light bulbs at home or just be conscious of switching off lights. If you can afford to drive an SUV, maybe you can afford to make a donation to a wind farm or plant some trees. It's all about balance.
He went home to Kentucky to deal with the loss of his father and the funeral arrangements and so on,
My mother's husband died when I was 4, and I thought he was my dad until I was 15 and found out that my legal guardian was my real dad. He kind of acted like my dad, anyway. But he wasn't with my mother living at home with us. It's an unusual kind of story, but it was cool because I had two dads for a while, and it was useful in creating the character in the movie.
I missed my home - like the physicality of my home, I missed my friends and my family mostly and just hanging out and being in your home country - culturally it feels right and that is what I miss.
I'm sure I was a great disappointment to many women because I wasn't Errol Flynn. But I'm me. I think that's got some merit.
I'm looking at doing things that challenge me.
It's so easy to forget what's important in life,
I want to have an impact on my son.
I'm going to start a new career as a singer, I think. I'm going to go the way of Russell Crowe.
I love this guy, ... I love the journey he goes on. It's a story we can all relate to, in terms of success and failure and the momentary happiness in life. What really makes people tick? What really makes them understand life?
I'm old-school English, so I suppose I'm quite protective - especially of time. Now that I'm a father, every moment is precious.
I've done movies with a sword before. But I haven't really been given the full responsibility of something like a Ridley Scott film.
I want to play James Bond - are you kidding me? I'm putting my name in the ring!
