![I’ve read a lot of “Cosmopolis” reviews, and they’re like “It’s a return to form, like ‘eXistenZ.’” And I am like, “No, it isn’t.” Obviously it’s much closer to “Videodrome.” This is going to sound ridiculous now, but I found “Videodrome” to be more a sort of mystical understanding. “eXistenZ” had a much more basis in reality, and “Videodrome” is kind of like “Describe a dream.” Most people don’t find other people’s dreams interesting. But sometimes, if you know the person, it’s kind of interesting. I find listening to people’s dreams interesting, even if I don’t know them. I also like reading their diaries. [Laughs]

![I get weird things. I am an expert at reading things wrong. I will take the opposite interpretation, even when something is blatantly obvious, especially with scripts. The amount of times I’ve gone into an audition for something, I will be like, “The guy’s the bad guy, right?” And they’re like, “No, it’s ‘The Notebook.’” [Laughs]
