There was one titanic guiding light on the film set, and I was in the presence of a true Mahatma, in the deepest and most profound sense of the word.
I do remember, as a child, that I always imagined, when I was maybe 6 or 7, my fantasy was that everywhere I went I was being followed by an invisible film crew.
I think the cinema you like has more to do with silence, and the theater you like has more to do with language.
I think that you can fall into bad habits with comedy... It's a tightrope to stay true to the character, true to the irony, and allow the irony to happen.
I think that various styles and methods and approaches are an invention of people who don't understand the process of acting and who try very hard to label things.
I think that most actors, and they're a very strange lot actors, very strange people, but I think that they attempt to keep in touch with the child.
I think Romeo and Juliet is uplifting. That's how much a son wishes to avenge his father. That is how much two young people can love each other.
I think if I were to go back on stage I might be in great danger of acting.
I think I'm more bonded, emotionally and in a craft sense, to films that tell extraordinary stories about extraordinary destinies.
I just loved playing a man who was unafraid of making an idiot of himself in the process of falling in love. I found that admirable.
I honestly have no strategy whatsoever. I'm waiting for that script to pop through the letterbox and completely surprise me.
I try and reduce myself to an almost blank slate and hope to God that I am creative.
I don't honestly think people know what acting is.
I always try to find something I admire about every character I play.
With narration, you have to be very accurate with your voice. It's a good exercise to do.
