At a very young age I was allowed to go into the cinema and watch adult films.
There is a whole bunch of great British actors of my age who aren't film stars or theatre actors; they're very much both.
The culture of independent film criticism has totally gone down the drain and this seems to come with the territory of the consumer age that we are now living in.
Actors' performances do not stand alone in any film, live action or whatever.
The way the films look will never entertain an audience alone. It has to be in the service of a good story with great characters.
Alone is a much better film than House of the Dead and better than most horror movies out today.
With 'Richard,' I was excited to make this film with such an amazing role for an actor. Play a wide range of emotion and really invest myself in the character.
I actually love 'West Side Story.' I think it's an amazing film to watch.
The dichotomy between art and industry is totally dysfunctional in terms of film.
Film is a very young art that is still evolving. Soon, we shall reach a balance between content and technology.
Art, film, fashion, music are all going on and interacting simultaneously. And L.A. is very receptive to that fusion.
I've had the good fortune of studying the 17th-century art of Amsterdam in preparation for a film.
My favorite books, art pieces, films, and music, always have something jarring about them.
I like connecting with people, and that's what good art is: a point of connection. There's nothing better, on stage or on film.
I didn't grow up thinking of movies as film, or art, but as movies, something to do on a Saturday afternoon.
For me, acting is about the art of it and it's about being on a film set and doing your thing, painting a blank canvas.
I wanted to do dance with the same seriousness as art was done and acknowledged, not with the entertainment factor that is always connected to theater and film.
Betrayal isn't ridiculous. It's the reason empires fall.
Certainly, a lot of the films I've worked on have ended up good movies, but they haven't always been the best experiences.
Crimes of Passion, which is one of the best films I've done, will live strongly in my resume, even though it didn't do well.
We get along really well, but TV and film aren't reality. We're best friends, but we do have our fights!
