I Work Best When A Little Scared,

It's Hard For It To Make A Mark In This City Because London Has So Much Culture To Offer.

They Know You're Not Alfred Hitchcock, But You Need To Be Enough Alfred Hitchcock For Them Not To Be Bothered By It. That's A Reassuring Thing.

What Happens Is Some Of The Characters I've Played Have Voices That Are So Different From My Own, That It Would Be Ridiculous If I Would Dip In And Out Of That Voice In Between Takes To Ask For A Coffee, Or Something. Or To Gossip About Whatever Was Going On.

Hitchcock's Got A Very Interesting Voice; It's A Very Controlled, Measured Rhythm That's Quite Slow And, In That Sense, Also Felt Quite Controlling In Its Pace. He Retained Something From His Childhood, That London Sound, As Well As Adopting Some Of The L.a. Sounds... All Of This Helps You Create The Character.

There Are Far More Good Actors Than There Are Jobs For Them, So It's A Big Question Of Luck.
