Making a movie in Hollywood is a bit like playing a board game, where you have to throw a six to start.

The popular image that Hollywood is ruined by difficult prima donna actors is nonsense. They’re certainly very nice to directors. I can’t say the same about producers, who I found difficult, paranoid, and certifiably insane, mostly.

I really ought to try and make a film that’s a bit more cynical. But I don’t think I’d know how to do it. I think what it is, is that if you’re a film director, you’re basically there because you enjoy manipulating people’s emotions.

Amongst my friends, I am known as the most cynical person they know – I’m incredibly cynical. I don’t believe in God, I don’t believe in the supernatural, I don’t believe in anything! And I’m terribly cynical, and somehow or other, all three of my films and much of my television work has been rather sentimental, and ‘heartwarming’.

In the States everyone aspires to be middle class. It’s so engrained into the American psyche: As long as you work hard you’re going to be rich some day. The history of Britain is that if you’re born working class, you’re going to stay there, although that is changing.

I’m not making films for middle aged journalists, who are mostly men. I make films that hopefully entertain people, where they can learn something about life.

I can’t find anything wrong with Ashton Kutcher. I think he’s great. It’s odd that in America there’s a very mixed reaction to him. I think those that have only seen him on ‘Punk’d’ or ‘That 70s Show’ get him wrong. There’s much more to him than those characters or that persona he plays in those shows.

I think the first rule of comedy is that it has to be funny and I find a lot of the broad comedy which is sent to me, painfully unfunny.

I think your 20s are the hardest part of life. I mean, everyone goes on about how hard it is to be a teenager, but actually I think it’s tougher to be in your 20s because you’re expected to be a grownup and expected to earn your own living and be successful and I think you feel like a kid still.

Nigel Cole Romantic

It seems to me that romantic comedies used to be about falling in love, but in recent years they’ve really become just comedies where the love story is only there as a spine to hang the jokes on.

Humor Nigel Cole

I think films about men are often about characters who don’t want to express their feelings. You’re supposed to kind of admire them for not expressing their feelings. And I feel that’s a bit dull. Women’s stories often have stronger emotional content, which I enjoy doing. What I really love doing is mixing that with humor.
