Interesting piece on him in the latest Men's Vogue, which really is worth reading if you can look past the fashion spreads featuring preening, emaciated, vacuous pretty boys.

The actor talks about living in Ireland. He says that he moved there in response to criticisms of his intense method-style of acting, which led to concern that he didn't 'conform, perhaps, to ideas about how an actor should conduct himself.'

Day-Lewis hasn't had this problem in Ireland, he says, where 'if someone says you're mad, it's a compliment.'

The reporter responded that someone in Dublin had recently told her that she was 'mad as a snake.'

'That's bordering on a proposal!,' the actor exclaimed.

Yep, he lives in Ireland, alright.
