Sometimes when you really try to be earnest, everything disappears. If you really try to make a romantic movie, the first thing that goes out the window is the romance or real passion. It suddenly becomes cute-ville or cozy-ville. It's another world other than life.

I was doing this children's theater play, and it was non-Equity. We were out of town to do it at the Kennedy Center, and it was always kind of, 'Well, the producers may have to turn this into Equity,' and that's what happened. It was kind of a silly children's theater play, but that's how I got my card.

There's definitely a pattern of great British shows that get reinvented in America and do really well here, but I think 'Torchwood' is a bit different. It's more of a hybrid that doesn't exist as a reinvention.

I don't like this instinct of reality television to wear your lifestyle in public. I've really always loved the anonymity of things.
Bill Pullman -
I like those crisis moments - if you're on top of it and don't get pulled under by panic and fear, it's a very bonding thing.

I've been lucky to be a part of many blockbuster movies... in which it's hard to get to that level of being memorable, but I still have fond memories of 'Independence Day,' to be sure. There are also many small ones I've had that give me many fond memories.

I think institutions that are bureaucratic often try to squeeze from the top down, and they don't have good results on the ground level.

'Zabriskie Point' was a time when I was in a lot of change and flux, and these incredible visuals hit me like they had rearranged the organs in my body. The ending and the free-floating debris and everything is an image that burned itself in my consciousness.

I noticed that in 'The Revenant,' as much as it is a good story of revenge and endurance, there are times that you get to escape with a story like that.

I like to wear my dad's shoes to auditions as sort of a lucky thing. I feel like I'm on solid ground.

Westerns give people a chance to see wide-open spaces and life before technology took over.

I went to school in the 1970s, and there was a lot of physical theater in those days.

I've always wrestled against being typified in one way or another.

I'd have to say that it kills me that there's a concern that 'Torchwood' has gone to America to become Americanised.

I'm a very discriminating shoe shopper. I only look for something special. In fact, I don't think I've ever bought two pairs at the same time.

I was 21, and rehearsing a play, took a fall and was in a coma for a few days. And when I recovered, I'd lost my sense of smell completely.
Bill Pullman -
There was an idea of accepting everyone; there was no sense of exclusion.
Bill Pullman -
I always love challenges and doing something that I can't quite figure out.

I really enjoyed doing Albee's 'The Goat.' It's a powerful piece and a really exciting play to do.

I've done a lot of different kinds of things, so different people remember me for different things.

I was the kid who would join a sports team and be the biggest liability at first and a star player by the time the game got going. I just move very slowly.
Bill Pullman -
I think, when I'm 73, I'm going to be getting softer, writing Hallmark cards, losing my teeth.
Bill Pullman -
I enjoy that with theater, you can just go into a room with a paper bag lunch: there're no cables, no electricity. It's the purest experience.
Bill Pullman -
This whole climate change and what it's doing to our environment is frightening to people.
