I Was On The Set Of 'braveheart'

Life Is Much Weirder Than Fiction; Nothing's More Absurd.

If I'm At Home On My Own And The Writing Isn't Going Well, I Clean My House. And There Have Been Times In The Past Few Years When My House Has Looked Really Clean.

I Find The World More Absurd Now Than I Did When I Was A Kid.

In The Acting Game, You Spend A Long Time Fighting Against What The Director Perceives You To Be. And Half The Time The Directors Don't Know.

Every Film I've Ever Worked On, And That Includes 'braveheart' And 'trainspotting,' I've Always Witnessed A Director Having A Breakdown. Every Director Will Have A Day, Without Exception, Where They Just Can't Do It Anymore, They Don't Know What To Say To Their Cameraman, Their Cast. It's The Sign Of Real, Physical Exhaustion.
