I'm not about to talk about what's romantic in my life - I figure if you talk about it once - then that's an open invitation for everyone to dig into your personal life even further.

We have got too many kids around the house to have a romantic meal at home. But Danielle is a fantastic cook. She does a brilliant lasagne great roasts and a great chilli dish. She knows the way to my heart.

Ooh it's too embarrassing to share my innermost romantic secrets - although I have written Danielle the odd poem. If anything they are more comedic than romantic. They used to be well-received but that was before she started studying Shakespeare at drama college. Now I feel so inept.

When you're playing a romantic version of a real person you're playing a version of the truth.

I am a big fan of the old Howard Hawks films from the 30s and 40s I was a big Hepburn and Tracey fan for a while and Woody Allen films that are a very different kind of romantic comedy.

When you are the lead in a romantic comedy you have to worry about people really liking you.

In the movies Bette Davis lights two cigarettes and hands the second one to James Cagney. It was just so glamorous and romantic.

I find it incredibly romantic that people should fight for a cause they believe in and be prepared to die for it.

Yeah romantic comedies are the hardest movies to make. Maybe one works a year.

I don't feel like a romantic lead I guess I feel more like a character actor.
