I Feel Less Often Compelled To Do

Actors Should Never Give Interviews.

Film Has Become Such A Central Part Of Our Culture Now That I Think Sometimes Too Great A Weight Is Placed Upon It In Terms Of Scrutiny And Analysis. There's A Lot Of Rather Specious Professorial Stuff That Swirls Around Films.

You Don't Merely Give Over Your Creativity To Making A Film - You Give Over Your Life! In Theatre, By Contrast, You Live These Two Rather Strange Lives Simultaneously; You Have No Option But To Confront The Mould On Last Night's Washing-up.

A Lot Of Guys In Jail Tattoo Their Hands.

The Theater Is A Need For Me. It's A Terrible Attraction, Something I'm Compelled To Do. And One Derives A Form Of Nourishment From The Theater Which You Can Never Get From Films. Making Films Weakens You In Some Way. With The Theater, The Work Itself Is A Regenerative Process.
