I love watching the Bond movies obviously and I grew up reading the books as a kid. I've always loved them because of that.

Actors are steeped in a world of agents and where the next job is coming from and what are their expenses and what is the hotel like. You want to take them out of that world and dump them into another world so that when you meet them on the screen they don't seem like the guy who was in two others movies that year.

I love huge movies. Not sure I am the guy to make them but you can rely on me being there watching them.

I just think old old movies they make you concentrate and pay attention so much more. They feel so warm. A lot of modern digital videotape it's just too bright. Don't know why it's not warm.

Movies are open doors and at every door I change character and life.

I'm an actor. And I guess I've done so many movies I've achieved some high visibility. But a star? I guess I still think of myself as kind of a worker ant.

Well I think one of the main things that you have to think about when acting in the movies is to try not to make the acting show.

All my life I have loved and been inspired by French cinema and as a studio head it has been my pride and joy to have the ability to bring movies to audiences around the world.

I've had such a great track record in making a huge profit when the movies are smaller.

You know my movies are important on an economic basis on an artistic basis.
