“Your job, as an actor, is never to just do what you're told. That's boring, and life is too short. It's your job to bring something, and it will either be to other people's taste or your own taste, and you have to try things out. Actors say, "Well, as long as the director's happy," but I don't believe that and I don't agree with that. I want the director to be happy, but if I'm not happy, I won't sleep at night.” PeopleIfsWantTryingBelieveWellsLongJobsLife IsNightActorsSleepTasteDirectorsAgreeDon't BelieveBoringToo ShortLife Is Too ShortNot Happy Author:Martin Freeman
“However happy the director is, I have to be okay with it. I'm pretty strict with myself, about throwing things out or trying to be true to whatever the situation dictates.” TryingSituationDirectorsOkayBeing TrueThrowingStrictThrowing Things Author:Martin Freeman
