You have to ask permission of the director; you shouldn’t just turn up and skulk about in the background. It’s very rude. You have to ask them personally. It’s like a vampire being invited into a house.

It’s also usually my experience of being in America – when I speak no one can understand what I’m saying.

That’s the nature of drama. Most of the things that get made or basically grisly detective shows about murders, accidents or medical dramas.

There are ambiguities in life, and that should be reflected in art, cinema, and storytelling, I think.

I found it almost impossible to see how you would get into the industry having no connections, nobody in the family being anywhere near it and never meeting anybody that had been on a set.
