Now that I've got some films under my belt I have the courage of my convictions regarding acting. It gives me a leg to stand on.

I've done four other films since 'Submarine ' so that's quite cool. It's just good to have people respect your work I've never had that before. Yeah my life has changed crazy. I'm a kid from a small town in south Wales I play my Xbox usually and all that sort of stuff and it's a whole new world.

My role in 'Legally Blonde' was really rewarding because I had so much fun working on the movie. I've had really rewarding experiences on tiny low budget films that you'll never see but where I had a cool time creating characters as well. I love almost all of the characters I've played.

The frustrating part of it is that you're generally known for what you did last. I've had the privilege of doing some very cool independent films that a lot of the time the general public doesn't see unless you're at a film festival or you're into that kind of movie.

Like I said about Freaked people tend to find these films and I think that in the end the cool thing about a movie is that it can be sort of burnt temporarily but then it's burnt into the fabric of your culture.

Films are really cool because every couple months or however many times you can get a job because there's a lot of luck involved in that you're playing a different character.

Period costume films are fun to discover but they're not relatable. It's more 'Wow that's cool - did it really look like that back then?' Whereas with a comedy you're like 'Yeah that's me that's my friends.' No matter what I want people to relate.

And of course I've got kids of my own now and they love me being in the Harry Potter films. I'm now part of a phenomenon. You become incredibly cool to your kids and you get a young fan base. So you became the cool dad at school. You're suddenly hip.

The nerds are the ones that make the films and do loads of other really cool stuff in their life.

Sci-fi films are the epic films of the day because we can no longer put 10 000 extras in the scene - but we can draw thousands of aliens with computers.

Computers in classrooms are the filmstrips of the 1990s.

The thing I've come to learn is that what's great about small independent films is the intimacy and the communication that occurs when you're making them.

As far as I was concerned either I was a homosexual or I wasn't so making films would change nothing.

Yes sir a patrol car came and took me down to a station where they were trying to develop films but they hadn't got the facilities to develop colored film.

My mother gave me this book called Feature Films at Used Car Prices by a guy named Rick Schmidt. I gotta credit the guy cuz he gave me the most practical advice. It empowers you.

As soon as I get my car I think I'll be going to the cinema more. Since I don't go very often there are no films that are a must see at the moment. I usually wait till they come out on DVD.

Independent film is almost nonexistent right now because all the distributers that used to love to put out these little art films are all out of business right now because it costs so much to open a movie.

I learned what I really love is making films not the film business. I want to be on the set meeting with writers I want that freedom. I love it now.

The nature of motion capture is only going to work for certain films. It's not going to put any other type of movies out of business.

The best films of any kind narrative or documentary provoke questions.

My main aim has always been to do good quality films with roles that have some substance. With Power and Beauty there were loads of things that I liked about the movie which made me opt for it.

Music as many people have said is the universal language. Of course points are made which make you think about things but ultimately it makes you feel. And that's why people remember more songs that have meant something during their life than films. They start to define periods in your life and that's kind of the beauty of it.

I've never had any illusions about being a lead actor in films because lead actors have to be of a certain kind. Apart from the beauty of looks and figure which I cannot claim to have there's just a particular kind of ordinary-Joe quality that a film star needs to have.

Films for TV have to be much closer to the book mainly because the objective with a TV movie that translates literature is to get the audience after seeing this version to pick up the book and read it themselves. My attitude is that TV can never really be any form of art because it serves audience expectations.
