I Find The World More Absurd Now

I Find The World More Absurd Now Than I Did When I Was A Kid.

Every Film I've Ever Worked On, And That Includes 'braveheart' And 'trainspotting,' I've Always Witnessed A Director Having A Breakdown. Every Director Will Have A Day, Without Exception, Where They Just Can't Do It Anymore, They Don't Know What To Say To Their Cameraman, Their Cast. It's The Sign Of Real, Physical Exhaustion.

Watching People Just Look Out For Themselves, I Think, Is Extremely Interesting. It Goes Right Back To Something Like 'the Beggar's Opera' - The Underbelly Of Society, How It Operates, And How That Reflects Their So-called Betters.

I Don't Like The Way Some Actors, When Playing A Nasty Character, Will Try To Grab Hold Of Something Good About Them.

It Takes A Very Strong Brain To Resist The Absolutes, The Myths That The Media And The Politicians Peddle - The Idea That If You Are Too Kind, Where Does It All End? That Not To Help Someone Is Somehow A Good Idea.
