The Way An Actor Is

I Really Think People Are Greatly Stimulated And Enriched By Experiencing In Film Just As We Can From Novels And Other Art, Experiencing Things That Resonate With What Our Lives Are About. I Think People Really Want To Know... Want To Share, Want To Have The Stimulus To Think And Care About The Way They Live Their Lives, The Way They Relate To Other People, Their Aspirations, Their Hopes, Et Cetera.

Some Deeply Untrusting Actors - The Kind That Need To Know Exactly What's What And Are Completely Insecure - Might Be Quite Good Within The Parameters Of A Certain Sort Of Acting.

The Problem With The British Film Industry Is The Nervousness And Insecurity About - And Genuflection Toward - Los Angeles.

I've Walked Out Of Films. But For Every Film I've Ever Walked Out Of, I've Probably Walked Out Of 500 Plays.

I Try And Create For The Audience Something That Relates To Real-life Experience. When You're Meeting Somebody For The First Time, All You Have To Go On Are Your Preconceptions And Your Stereotypes And Whatever Else, But Gradually As You Get To Know Them, They Change. They Become More Three-dimensional, And You Start To See Them In Layers.
