I Am A Pr Disaster

I Just Increasingly Enjoy The Quiet Moments When I Can Be On My Own With My Friends And Family, Or With A Book, Having A Live Experience. That's Really What I Crave, And I Always Have Done.

I'm Aware Of The Power Of Looks. I've Wanted To Play Roles That Have Gone To Much Better-looking People And You Just Think 'oh Well, That's The Pin Up Guy's An Actor Like My Friend James Mcavoy, Who's Gorgeous On Screen. I'm Not That. But At Least I Don't Have To Worry About Taking Precious Care Of My Face Because It's My Commodity. That's A Great Freedom. I'm Not Afraid Of Being Heinous For The Sake Of A Part

I Think What I Loved In Cinema - And What I Mean By Cinema Is Not Just Films, But Proper, Classical Cinema - Are The Extraordinary Moments That Can Occur On Screen. At The Same Time, I Do Feel That Cinema And Theater Feed Each Other. I Feel Like You Can Do Close-up On Stage And You Can Do Something Very Bold And Highly Characterized - And, Dare I Say, Theatrical - On Camera. I Think The Cameras And The Viewpoints Shift Depending On The Intensity And Integrity Of Your Intention And Focus On That.

The Number Of People My Age, Younger Now, A Whole Generation Younger, Who Are Fiercely Bright, Over-educated, Under-employed And Who Are Politicised And Purposeless Really Upsets Me. It's Soul-destroying.

When You Freefall For 7,000 Feet It Doesn't Feel Like You're Falling: It Feels Like You're Floating, A Bit Like Scuba Diving.
