Critics can be your most important friend. I don`t read criticism of my stuff only because when it`s bad, it`s rough-and when it`s good, it`s not good enough.
As I was coming up on the stage, there was one source that could make or break you, the New York Times. Inevitably there would be one actor singled out for a better review, or worse, than somebody else. The effect of that was cancerous, divisive.
Gary Oldman is impossible to steal a movie from. He`s such a great actor, he`s off the hook. I love him.
