I Always Try To Find

I Think That Shakespeare Had His Male Side And His Female Side Extremely Well Developed. And This Was A Great Quality Of The Elizabethan, All-around Renaissance Man. They Were Not Afraid Of Their Male Side And Their Female Side Co-existing. This Somewhere Along The Line Got Lost. And Then It Got Misunderstood.

I Think That Most Actors Attempt To Keep In Touch With The Child.

I Hope I'm Able To Achieve More On Camera Through Stillness, Through Focus, Through Being Quite Careful To Do Less On Every Take, Rather Than More. So I'm Reducing, Rather Than Adding. Which Hopefully Is A Good Exercise. That's What I'd Like To Do.

I Never Read Anything In Print About Me. It Started With Not Reading Reviews And With The Greatest Respect To My Publicist Here, I Never Read Interviews. I Was There When I Gave Them. I Never Read Reviews. I Was There When I Did The Jobs - So I'm Totally Immune. I Live In A Bubble.

I Never Went To Drama School. I Went Straight Into The Theater. We Had The Most Extraordinary Voice Teacher. I Worked With Her When I Was Starting Out In My Career. How To Place My Voice From A Very Relaxed Position Was All Wonderfully Reminiscent Of Going Back To The Basics. But I Always Like To Do That With Any Role That I Do, To Dismantle It And Put It All Back Together Again.
