“I had to ride a horse once. In 'King Arthur.' I said I could ride, but I had to call for lessons on the day the deal was signed. I started out on this little chunky thing and slowly moved up. It was months of work.” LittlesSaidDealsMonthsKingsLessonsHorseMovedArthurKing Arthur Author:Clive Owen

“In Europe, I'm recognized on the street sometimes. And that's cool, because I don't have to live there and deal with it every day. Unless you're Stephen King - a great writer, by the way, and anyone who says different knows nothing about the craft - you're more likely to be recognized in America if you play in a soap opera than if you're a novelist.” IfsKnowsWayDifferentSometimesPlayAmericaDealsStreetsKingsEuropeCraftsNovelistsOperaSoapGreat WritersSoap Operas Author:George Pelecanos
“Ruling is hard. This was maybe my answer to Tolkien, whom, as much as I admire him, I do quibble with. Lord of the Rings had a very medieval philosophy: that if the king was a good man, the land would prosper. We look at real history and it's not that simple... Real-life kings had real-life problems to deal with... My people who are trying to rule don't have an easy time of it.

“Theater roles are written by the great masters. The greatest literature that you can possibly know are the theater roles like King Lear, Hamlet, and all of those great roles. So all you do is you dive into these unchallenged roles and see how far you can get, what kind of accolades you can get, and how good you can be in them. In movie roles, you can actually improve them by knowing a lot about your own stage technique, which helps a great deal in the cinema and how you can project inner humor even though the particular dialogue is not necessarily funny, but you can infuse it with humor.” KnowsKindHelpingLiteratureDealsRolesKnowingWrittenStageParticularMastersKingsProjectsTheaterTechniqueDialogueCinemaLearAccolades Author:Christopher Plummer
“I don't think a day has gone past in 10 years where someone hasn't said, 'What did you do with those guns from Lock, Stock?' And there's pretty much not a week that's gone by where someone hasn't got me to say, 'It's a deal, it's a steal, it's the sale of the f**king century.' Apart from that I get, 'You were brilliant in Notting Hill,' because I look vaguely like Rhys Ifans.” ThinkingYearsLooksSaidPastDealsGoneWeekCenturyKingsGunBrilliantStealingHillsLocksNotting HillLock Stock Author:Jason Flemyng
“In The Godfather, for instance, they say they won't deal drugs because they have a code of behaviour. He is the last remnants of that.

“I think he [King Edward] was a modernizer who was a new thinker. The things he intended to do - unify the country, expand it all from coast to coast - were very modern and radical in those days. Also, the fact that he married who he did and that he managed to deal with the consequences and ramifications of that marriage and stay on the throne until the day he died, that shows skill.” ThinkingCountryFactsShowsDealsModernKingsSkillsMarriedConsequenceDiedRadicalThinkerThronesCoastRamifications Author:Max Irons
