Tim Robbins: Maybe it's a warning - a way to imagine a future that we don't want to be living in. There are limitations placed in every society; the only way to be totally free is to be free in your mind. There are always going to be restrictions, laws and limitations placed on us. Finding your way to freedom is always a challenge. That's a universal theme. It's really up to the individual and how they choose to live their life: whether they choose to celebrate their freedom or let it lie stagnant and atrophy.

Tim Robbins: Ultimately you go with the director and where he wants to go. You sign on for the journey and you're one of the members of the team. There were times when I was wondering how things were going to turn out, but my job is not to figure out how it all gets put together. My job is to show up for work, to be professional, to know my lines and bring as much as I can to that particular character.
