I'm about to do scene 58 with the lovely Salma Hayek where we roll around on the beach naked and talk about some silly diamond, ... And the boys are telling me that the negotiations have stopped.

I left school at 15 feeling fairly useless and not really up to scratch in my education. And I still suffer sometimes from that lack of education. As an actor, I've got by, I've had employment, I've had the good fortune to be able to work and I just feel blessed. But I do feel I have some bit of talent to create a character or move people, or entertain an audience, and that is very gratifying.

Beauty can pierce one like a pain.
