“If you are prepared to make a fool of yourself for them then you usually get that back. I think that there are points where you become so close to an actor, you know them so well, almost as well or better than their spouse. You have to know them, warts and all.” IfsThinkingKnowsWellsActorsFoolPreparedSpouseWarts Author:Adrian Lyne
“It makes it easier, if you can't do an American accent. I don't know. It's different. I played a character in Never Let Me Go where the script for my character was very sparse, and I enjoyed it. With Never Let Me Go, I had a whole book written from my character's point of view, so I always knew where I was. But, with Ryan [Gosling], it was just easy. He's such a brilliant actor and he is so prepared. He doesn't have to warm himself up to be in a scene. He's just in it. It draws you in, in a way.” IfsKnowsWayBookDifferentWholeCharacterActorsEasyViewsWrittenEasierSceneDrawsLet MePreparedScriptsWarmPoint Of ViewBrilliantEnjoyedAccentsLet Me GoNever Let Me Go Author:Carey Mulligan
“The word 'ego' is very important. The ego is an important element of being human, and of being creative. We need that ego in order to give us a confidence of doing what we're doing. Ego pushes us into the creative world in order to create for something more. I think that a great company of actors, they all have egos, very strong egos, but they're all prepared to share together in order to achieve something even better than that.” ThinkingWorldNeedsGivingHumansImportantTogetherOrderActorsStrongCompanyCreativeShareAchieveEgoElementsPreparedVery StrongBeing HumanBe CreativeGreat Company Author:George Ogilvie
