| Quotes: |
[on Margo Stilley, his co-star in 9 Songs (2004)] I didn't fancy her - I felt protective towards her. On set she was the only woman with a crew of four lads. You can't get away from the fact she's a young girl.
<br />
<hr>
[on9 Songs (2004)] Pretty much everything Michael [Michael Winterbottom] wrote, we did. The general consensus of opinion was to push it as far as we could. The only thing I wouldn't do was have sex with a man - Michael suggested it but that was the only thing I wouldn't do. |
