Cripple Billy, orphaned since birth, just might have found a way off the Isle of Aran and a route all the way to Hollywood if he can persuade a small community of Islanders how much he wants to realise his dream.

Martin McDonagh’s comic masterpiece examines an ordinary coming of age in extraordinary circumstances and confirms his position as one of the most original Irish voices to emerge in the second half of the twentieth century.

Dan to the Daily Mail: ‘It’s got pathos, heartbreak — and it’s very funny,’ ‘a young boy desperate to be in film . . . I can relate to that. I’ve been desperate to find something to come back to London with.’

IdeasTap Q&A in promotion of The Woman in Black. Read below.

You’ve described yourself as very competitive. How crucial is that to your success as an actor?
It’s important, certainly. You do need to be competitive because there are so many of us, and we’re all good and we all want to work, and there are a finite number of films being made; less now than there were. So it’s about being competitive, but it’s also about loving it so much the competition comes naturally.

Most jobs you get as an actor, and the last two films I’ve done, you have to really scrap for parts. You have to show the director you’re the most enthusiastic and the most driven and you’ll work the hardest for him.

Hardest scene to film

The results: Daniel did not win Best Male Performance (went to Josh Hutcherson) Movie of the year is won by Twilight: Breaking Dawn part 1, HP also did not win Best Fight, but... they won Best Cast & Best Hero! (from the Social Media voting they introduced this year) Congratulations to all! They deserved it! Emma Watson was there to accept the Best Cast Award, below is her acceptance speech:

"I don't think I will ever accept an award on behalf of so many people," Watson said. "From Ralph Fiennes to Helena Bonham Carter to Hedwig and Dobby and all of them, this is amazing. We had over 200 cast members and I wish they could all be up here with me now. Sadly. they can't. "Obviously I share this award in particular with [Daniel Radcliffe] and Rupert [Grint]," she added. "Wherever you are, I hope you're watching, and I miss you both dearly. Just, thank you. I really, really appreciate it."

"Explain HP's success at the MTV Movie Awards"

The 2012 MTV Movie Awards are fast approaching, Emma and Rupert are up for the award of Best Kiss (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2) and Yahoo! asked Daniel exclusively about movie snogs and what makes them worthy of a gong.

"God knows. I don't know [blushes].

"You just kiss like a normal person and enjoy it! You just have to enjoy it and really be into it with the person you're with.

"I've never had to kiss anyone that I didn't really like. I don't know how I'd feel about that.

"But yeah I think as long as you're enjoying it that will show. You gotta have fun, you can't be all nervous and twitchy about it."

"I'd be more than happy to lose to Ryan Gosling in that category.

"I don't pay a huge amount of attention to the awards thing. In America people are much more open about their desire to win awards. I don't have that. I never know quite what to make of it."
