001.What’s your favourite CD?

       I not really have a favourite CD, but I like to listen to the music of Barbra Streisand.

002.What’s your favourite number?

       Also in this I don’t have a real favourit. Well I like very much moviemusic like ‘The Mission’, ‘The English Patient’

       and ‘Brokeback Mountain’.

003.Do you ever listen to music before you gonna film?

       If I’m filming for a movie I listen much at my I-pod to music who call up ‘the voting’ which has to do with the movie.

       Or with the subject such as which I did ‘Immortal Beloved’ (the movie about Beethoven), then I listen much to music of

       Beethoven.

004.How important is music for you?

       Mostly as background by my working playes music a important role, if this is filming or painting. About he choices of

       music I really like much, one time pop , then modern and another time classic.

005.Who’s your favourite singer (man or female) and/or group?

       As uncrown kings The Beatles are for me at number one. And also Rod Stewart has a warm place by me.

006.With who do you like to sing a duet someday?

       Oh with nobody! I couldn’t sing at all myself.

007.What’s your favourite sport to watch? And which sport are you doing yourself?

       I love skiing and tennis. Both sports I also do myself with much fun.

008.You’re an actor in tv-series (a guestappearances in “Miami Vice”), movies (‘The Living Daylights’), are producer

       (‘Fogbound’), director (‘The Discovery of Heaven’) and painter. But, what do you like to do the most?

       I will and hoof not make this choose, thank God! Things which I think are interesting I will do, it doesn’t matter if that is

       directing or acting for example. My chooses are more on initiative.

009.Meanwile you’re worked with a lot of famous stars. Who has made the most impression on you?

       In ‘The Fugitive’ I’ve worked with Harrison Ford as well with Tommy Lee Jones. Harrison Ford is the most friendly one

       where I’ve worked with and with Tommy Lee Jones I would never work again. I think of him as an outside ordinary

       unpleasant person. And I’ve already worked with them, but I would love to work with Barbra Streisand and Isabella

       Rossellini again. With Barbra Streisand I’ve worked at ‘The Prince of Tides’. I see her as the most interesting person

       which I’ve ever worked with. And Isabella Rossellini is a very sweet person. So sweet that I already worked with her at

       ‘Immortal Beloved’, ‘The Odyssey’, ‘Left Luggage’ and ‘The Sky Is Falling’.

010.Since 1986 you know Edwin de Vries. You two worked together at ‘Left Luggage’ and ‘The Discovery of Heaven’.

       How was it working with Edwin?

       Working with Edwin was always very good. I say was, because we’re now both do other things. It’s namely also good to

       work independent of each other.

011.On which project are you most pride and/or do you have the best memories?

       I’m very pride on ‘Left Luggage’ and ‘The Discovery of Heaven’, so the movies where i was the director for. And from

       my acting works the movies ‘The Fugitive’ and ‘Farinelli’ are both at number one!

012.Besides actor, you’re also a painter with success. Could you tell something more about this?

       I paint rather in my house in France. The France landscape I really love and I always delight me to go to France for my

       paintingvacation. So, I like to paint the most the France landscape. In my paintings are no definite messages.

013.What could we expect at showbizz in the future from you?
