Jeremy Irons: Basically, I want to keep working, so I don't worry about the size of the character - if it's interesting, I'll do it. It's quite nice doing smaller roles, in some ways. It means I get home more, and I can get on with my life.
 
Jeremy Irons: Anyway, I'm never satisfied. I think were I ever satisfied with my work, I'd be in trouble.
