Going To The Movies Was A Big

I Got To Read Some Writings By Serial Killers, And They Got Inside My Head. They Were Quite Disturbing. I Read Disturbing Stuff About That Very Detached Way Of Manipulating People To Do Things.

I Certainly Gained A Lot By Reading About Shanghai.

I Don't Feel I'm Playing Villains All The Time.

I'm Interested In The Spirits Of People. In The Theatre, There's The Acting Part Of Acting - And I'm Not Saying That Can't Be Great - And There's The Essence. To Explore That Essence, You Need A Key, A Look, A Gesture, An Insight That Unlocks The Person's Soul.

Performance Is Made In The Editing Room, And I've Come To See The Truth In That - The Idea That They Say Performances Are Usually Made In The Editing Room Because What You Film Is The Raw Material. I Think Just Going Through The Process Of Saying, "which Take Do We Use? Why Is That The Take We Want? I Want That Take Can You Edit Again, I'm Not Sure That's The One, I Think It's This One." And Just Because You Go Through That Process, I Think Somehow It's Made Me Sort Of More Open About The [actor's] Possibilities.
