All great performances. The Piano is another great role. Different for him.

Met him once. Nothing more to add that fans would want to know. I was trying to help him promote two of these films at the Cannes Film Festival. I never understood why people do press when they are rude and unpleasant about it.

I’ve heard a few stories. Good actor but definitely a bit on the moody side.
