“So, most of it was done over the phone. But one of the first things I did as a director, because it's one of the first things you should do, even though most don't, is to ask good actors who they think is right for the part. They know better than anybody. But without missing a beat Maggie said Pauline Collins. I didn't know Pauline because I hadn't seen Shirley Valentine, but then I saw this thing that she did with Woody Allen [You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger], in which she was wonderful as a psychic, and I said to her on the phone: "The dialogue seemed improvised."” ThinkingKnowsShouldFirstsSaidDoneActorsAsksDarkSawsWonderfulMissingDirectorsBeatsPhonesStrangerDialogueTallValentinePsychicsWoodyGood ActorsMaggie Author:Dustin Hoffman
“It's depend of the communication, I think it's very important to let the director make his own vision of the character, not making a studio movie. Look the Dark Knight it's totally the vision of Nolan.” ThinkingLooksImportantCharacterDarkVisionCommunicationDependsDirectorsStudiosKnightsNolan Author:Xavier Gens
“But, it takes some of the characters to some very dark places, and they start doing things that they might not do, if they were in regular circumstances. Their true humanity comes out - the good and the bad. Something else that was fun was that every director would come in so excited to go with their own creativity.” IfsCharacterMightHumanityFunDarkCreativityCircumstancesDirectorsExcitedDark Places Author:Kyra Zagorsky
“I think there's a perception of me that I'm the dark lord of all that is scary and gory, but that's completely false. I love musicals. My house is very bright and lit.
