"Stephen Dorff has said that he pursued the lead role in Somewhere as a tribute to his mother. Speaking to The AP, the actor revealed that his mother - who died a year before he won the part - always wanted him to play someone with heart. In the film, the 37-year-old portrays a hard-partying actor who changes his lifestyle when his young daughter comes to live with him. The star explained that he &amp;quot;felt my mum with me for the first time in a year that was pretty dark and pretty empty&amp;quot; when director Sofia Coppola confirmed his role. Dorff stars as Britney Spears&amp;#039;s boyfriend in her new music video &amp;#039;Everytime&amp;#039;. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
