I really don't like the gym. I like experiences, so I take any chance I get to go on a bicycle or on a hike.
The older I get, the more I appreciate my rural childhood. I spent a lot of time outdoors, unsupervised, which is a blessing.
Nature is where I feel most comfortable; it's where I find my balance. I would like my kids and all future generations to have the chance to experience nature as I did.
The challenges I face in the studio pale in comparison to when I'm out in nature.
As far as I'm concerned, I want to do everything because life is short. So, when I did 'The Red Violin' film, I got to go to the Oscars, and I got to meet Samuel Jackson, and I got to do stuff that one wouldn't normally do in my world.
I have discovered I cannot dream up characters as incredible as the ones I meet in the wilderness.
People love to go closer to nature and other people, so we need to create environments that let people have these emotional connections.
I wanted my children to have the same exposure to the water I had. My strongest memories of Northeast Harbor are going in a small Whaler with my dad, looking for osprey.
