You Know, Real Life Doesn't

I'd Like To, When It's All Said And Done, Say That I Have At Least A Few Stories That I Feel Proud Of.

I Suppose A Good Director Is Like A Teacher. I Think That Someone Like David Cronenberg Was Very Much Like A Teacher, Because There's An Openness, But A Certain Set Of Rules Of Behavior, And A Certain Conduct Expected. But There's An Atmosphere That's Relaxed And Conducive To Exploration, And That Is Created By Someone Like Cronenberg.

I've Never Been Conscious Of Having Any Real Career Plan, And I Do Not Have A Wish-list Of Actors, Directors, Screenwriters, Or Cameramen I'm Hoping To Work With. Life, I Feel, Has A Way Of Leading Us To The Right Situations And People, Or At Least To Interesting Ones.

You Know, 'viggo' Is A Pretty Dorky Name In Denmark. It's Like 'oswald' Or Something. It's A Very Old Scandinavian Name, At Least 1,000 Years Old.

I Realise How Important It Is To Use The Time I Have. I Respect People Who Want To Do That By Watching Television. I Happen To Want To Read Books. But I Know I Can't Read All The Books Or Watch All The Movies In One Lifetime.
