I'm Dead Against The Idea That You

Before Acting, I Wanted To Become A Journalist. I Also Toyed With The Idea Of Being A Chef - But That's Only When People Asked Me What I Wanted To Be. In Fact, I Always Used To Say I Wanted To Be An Actor, But I Didn't Ever Believe That I Was Good Enough To Be Come One.

I Think The Point To Be Understood Is That We're All Different. I've Never Been A Fan Of Theories Of Acting. I Didn't Go To Drama School, So I Was Never Put Through A Training That Was Limited By Someone Saying, 'this Is The Way You Should Act.'

My Memory Of 3d Movies Is Fernando Lamas In A Swashbuckling Movie. And I Suppose It Had Been The Fifties, In Which Swords Came Out At You, Bullets Came Out At You, Things Were Thrown Into The Auditorium, Apparently. All That Sort Of Cheap, "oh, Look At Us, We've Got 3d" Isn't In The Film.

You Would Be Surprised How Many Directors Don't Know What They Want. They Might Not Know What They Want Until They See It, They Might Know What They Want But No Idea How To Get It Out Of The Actor, Then You've Both Got A Problem.

I’ve Often Thought The Bible Should Have A Disclaimer In The Front Saying This Is Fiction.
