"As a kid, as a poor-ish, working-class kid, even visiting America seemed like an impossible dream. E..." — Martin McDonagh

There's no point in me meeting with a bunch of producers or studios, because I'll write my own scripts in my own time.

'Beauty Queen' will always be a favourite because I think it's a really tight play, and when it's done right, there is a sadness to it that I love.

I probably haven't had enough gay characters in my stuff. When you're writing something, you're thinking, 'Why couldn't this person be black, white, gay?'

Everything went perfectly on 'In Bruges.' It was constant warfare, but I won all the battles and was really happy working with the actors and everything on the film.
