I'm More Interested In Talking About What I Do. And I Don't Think People Are Interested In My Personal Life. I've Never Had A Hollywood Life. I've Always Been A Worker. But It's True: If You Know Something About A Person Outside Of The Movie That Is Really Repulsive To You, It's Hard To Shake. So I Prefer To Do My Speaking Through The Work.

The Other Stuff Is Personal And Too Easy To Trivialize Out Of Context.
