I Definitely Consider Myself A Method Actor,

As An Actor, You Live A Little Bit Of A Cloistered Life. It's A Lonely Life. You Oddly, Strangely Find Yourself All Alone, Quite Often, With A Lot Of Time To Think.

I'm A Little Bit Of A Glutton For Punishment, Especially When It Comes To Work. I Don't Mind A Bit Of Suffering. I Think It's In Suffering That We Realize Our Best Selves.

I Definitely Consider Myself A Method Actor, Because Of My Training. I Might Dispute What People Consider A Method Actor To Be. For My Money, A Method Actor Is An Actor Who Has A Technique. That Has A Method. And Not One Method, But Whatever Might Be Required. So A Method Actor Is Always Learning.

I Don't Tend To Use Technology All That Much. Of Course, I Can't Avoid It - It's Called The Telephone Nowadays. And I Do A Certain Amount Of Email, Work-related Primarily, On It. But I Don't Do A Lot Of Looking For Things Online.

I Am A Smoker, I'm Ashamed To Say. I Had Given It Up For Many Years, Then Picked It Up Again. It's A Horrible Habit. I Struggle With Myself All The Time. And I Love To Smoke. An Actor Has To Be Very, Very Careful, As One Of The Most Wonderful Props - And Actors Love Props - Is A Cigarette. There's So Much To Do With It: You Can Bring It Up To Your Face, Play With The Smoke. It's Just The Greatest - Ever Since I Was 16 And In Acting School In England, I've Been Playing Around With Cigarettes.
