Notes on Benicio Del Toro

"I like anything that's three-dimensional, anything I can believe in - even if it's fantastic, surreal or from another planet." - Del Toro to Newsweek, Jan. 15, 1996

"Personally, I thought I'd made my career when I did a James Bond movie when I was 21 [playing a villain in 'Licence to Kill']. After that I went about a year without work. That was a reality check. It wasn't until 'The Usual Suspects,' where I was part of a good movie with a great cast and a great script, that I became, recognized." - Del Toro to GQ magazine, March 2005

"You could say that actors are a little schizophrenic, but all of us are. We behave in different ways with different people." - Del Toro to Los Angeles magazine, February 2004
