I never wanted to do the same kind of movies over and over anyway, so my theory on it all is I'm just gonna try and dodge the label and keep doing what I am doing. ↗

It's a question of keeping one's eyes and ears open and watching how other people play the game. They're watching me too, to see what my attitude is like. ↗
