If I Were To Write

Some People Come Up To Be Directors By Coming Through The Camera Department And There's Not A Lot Of Women In The Camera Department. The Ones That Are Have To Kind Of Prove They're One Of The Boys, I Think. I Don't Want To Get Into Trouble With Generalisations But I Think It's A Fair Observation.

But It's Interesting Being Directed By Someone Who Is A Very Good Actor. There's Nothing Like It. It Might Sound Like A Territorial Thing About What I Do, But I Don't Think You Can Understand What It Is Until You've Done It. I Know That To Be A Fact.

My Primary Instinct As An Actor Is Not The Big Transformation. It's Thrilling If A Performer Can Do That Well, But That's Not Me. Often With Actors, It's A Case Of Witnessing A Big Party Piece But Wondering Afterwards, Where's The Substance?

Forget Trying To Be Sexy. That's Just Gruesome.

Less Racist Now But It Has Been. I Don't Think It's Been Completely Stamped Out. There's A Class Element To It. And Who's Supposed To Do What. You're Very Unlikely To Get A Gay Grip.
