You’ve got to be flexible. Directors do a massive amount of planning and homework, and if after all that your director decides to throw it all out of the window and shoot spontaneously, then you must follow his lead Picture Quote #1

If you really want to become an actor, but only providing that acting doesn’t interfere with your golf game, political ambitions and your life, you don’t want to become an actor. Not only is acting more than a part time job, it’s more than a full time job. It’s a full time obsession Picture Quote #1

Movie acting is about covering the machinery. Stage acting is about exposing the machinery. In cinema, you should think the actor is playing himself, if he’s that good. It looks very easy. It should. But it’s not, I assure you Picture Quote #1

My wife comes with me on all the movies, but she is not an appendage to a film star or anything like that. She is a completely intertwined partner. She is the other half of me. Also, we’re still very much in love with each other. We always have been, we always will be Picture Quote #1

My view of actors is that basically they’re all harmless lunatics who’d be on the psychiatrist’s couch Picture Quote #1

If you’re an actor and you don’t act for a long time you sort of think, I wonder if I can still do it Picture Quote #1

Since I was 19, I’ve had the most fun possible every single day, even when I had a rough life. It was the army which taught me about life, and the theater which taught me how good it could be Picture Quote #1

In my opinion, everybody is getting older and older. We have a great deal of dementia because nobody grew old enough to get it Picture Quote #1

I come from the slums; I come from a hard background; I come from a poor family; and I was a soldier Picture Quote #1

My career is going better now than when I was younger. Now I get the part. Back then, I’d get the girl Picture Quote #1
