I Consider Myself More Of A Visual

I'm As Poor As A Church Mouse, That's Just Had An Enormous Tax Bill On The Very Day His Wife Ran Off With Another Mouse, Taking All The Cheese.

[maigret Sets A Trap] Was Always Going To Be The First Film, And It Seemed To Be Quite A Nice Story. But Of Course It Meant That Here I Was Playing This New Character For The First Time, In A Place Where He Had Been A Relative Failure, As All These People Had Been Murdered And The Pressure Was On. Rather Than Starting Optimistically With His Pipe In Front Of The Fireplace, He Was In Quite A Difficult Place.

I Find His Films About As Funny As Getting An Arrow Through The Neck And Discovering There's A Gas Bill Tied To It.

The Job Is Interesting, And The Task Is Difficult, But The Man [maigret] Is Just A Decent Man Doing A Very Ordinary Job.

When You Play A Serious Role, As Far As I'm Concerned, I Feel I'm Using Exactly The Same Skills, Whatever They Are, To Play The Role As You Do With Something More Obviously Comic. It's Slightly Different Muscles, But The Same Skill Set.
