Performance Is Made In The Editing Room, And I've Come To See The Truth In That - The Idea That They Say Performances Are Usually Made In The Editing Room Because What You Film Is The Raw Material. I Think Just Going Through The Process Of Saying, "which Take Do We Use? Why Is That The Take We Want? I Want That Take Can You Edit Again, I'm Not Sure That's The One, I Think It's This One." And Just Because You Go Through That Process, I Think Somehow It's Made Me Sort Of More Open About The [actor's] Possibilities.

Having Gone Through Editing Process, I Can See That In Actor's Faces There's Point Where They're Not Managing Their Performance And That's, I Think, The Best Place To Be. You've Done The Homework, You've Learned The Lines, At That Point You Just Sort Of Let It Out.

Going To The Movies Was A Big Event In My Youth. My Father Would Be The Initiator - He'd Have Me Put On A Jacket To See A Film.

News Reports Can Overwhelm Us. We Can Be Appalled, We Can Sympathise. But What Is Hard To Grasp Is The Sense That, At This Moment, People Are Working, Organising - Not Just At An Executive Level, But On The Floor, In The Warehouse.

And Somewhere, Tomorrow, Those Boxes Will Be Unpacked And A Child With Life-threatening Diarrhoea Will Be Saved, A Baby Will Be Born In More Hygienic Circumstances, A Girl Will Receive Her First Exercise Book And Her First Pencil.
