Women Never Really Care To Face The

Years Ago I Met Richard Burton In Port Talbot, My Home Town, And Afterwards He Passed In His Car With His Wife, And I Thought, 'i Want To Get Out And Become Like Him'. Not Because Of Wales, Because I Love Wales, But Because I Was So Limited As A Child At School And So Bereft And Lonely, And I Thought Becoming An Actor Would Do That.

I've Always Liked To Be A Meat And Potatoes Kind Of Actor Who Doesn't Believe In Any Of The Highfalutin Stuff About Acting, So I Tend To Be A Little Bit More Cynical.

My Father Was Grounded, A Very Meat-and-potatoes Man. He Was A Baker.

I Came Here In 1974 To Do A Play, And Then I Went To L.a. I Really Like Living In America. I Feel More At Home Here Than Anywhere Else.

I Never Make Conscious Decisions. If My Agent Says To Me, "it's A Good Script," I'll Do It. I Don't Plan. I've Got A Lot Of Things To Do. I'm At The Roulette Table And My Luck Seems To Be Running At The Moment. I Might As Well Stay There Until It Runs Out.
