But Films Should Be Voyeuristic.

Some Deeply Untrusting Actors - The Kind That Need To Know Exactly What's What And Are Completely Insecure - Might Be Quite Good Within The Parameters Of A Certain Sort Of Acting.

In The First Place, I'm Pretty Thorough About Whom I Choose. I Instinctively Look For The Kind Of Actor Who Is Going To Be Trusting. There Are All Kinds Of Insecure People Out There Called Actors.

He's [constable] A Great Painter As Far As It Goes, But I Don't Think He's Remotely Interesting. Not Really. It's Very Pretty And It's Very Thorough, But It's Not Evocative, It's Not Dramatic, It Doesn't Do What Beethoven Does - It Doesn't Shake You Down To The Roots Of Your Soul, Which Turner Does. Constable Is Just Very Nice, Basically. And Moving On To Personality, Constable Was A Very Dull Character.

What I Do Is To Collaborate With Each Actor And Work One-on-one To Create A Character. And That Is A Matter Of Huge Complexity And Is A Combination Of A Great Deal Of Discussion And A Lot Of Practical Work. It Involves A Lot Of Consideration For The Real People Out There, And All Kinds Of Sources Of Real People. The Result Is The Character. But I'm Not Supposed To Talk About What It Is We Do, Because It's Nobody's Business.

Some Of My Favorite Movies Are Hollywood Movies. Hollywood Is Part Of The Cinematic Spectrum. I Nurture A Healthy Love-hate Relationship With Hollywood.
