As far as art and filmmaking is concerned, I don't see there's any separation; it's just one continuous thing.
When I walk out into the street or go to the toilet, I don't think of myself as being black. Of course, other people think of me as black when I walk into a pub. Obviously being black is a part of me.
The person is being confrontational.
I don't know why it (stardom) happened-but it's kinda nice. Maybe it's because I'm someone off the streets. Maybe people relate to me.
I deal with certain things in my work because of who I am. I make work in order to make people think.
Ill never be as good an actor as I want to be....but I'll be good.
You see, I don't believe in that grabbin' and grabbin' and stuffin yourself and not givin' anythin' or puttin' it back.
I love creating images, of course, because I'm an artist.
If I hadn't made it as an actor, I might have wound up a hood.
The camera movement should be like a cat jumping onto a table - with just enough amount of effort and that's it. That's enough.
Nobody trusts anyone, or why did they put tilt on a pinball machine.
I always feel I'm an amateur. I don't most of the time know what I'm doing.
Anything that doesn't make sense, I don't want to give too much of my brain to.
People try to contain things by putting them into categories. I don't.
I'm not sure that acting is something for a grown man to be doing.
I worked hard, and if you work hard you get the goodies.
I hope you find what you're looking for.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
