“I'm a theater actress. I love rehearsal. I could have six weeks of rehearsal and think it's not enough. But on film, you don't get that luxury.” ThinkingEnoughFilmWeekSixTheaterActressesLuxuryRehearsal Author:Kelly Reilly
“I'm one of those pathetic actors who will say yes to every play reading just because I do miss the stage so much. What I really miss about the theater is that in the end, it's yours to give. In television and film, it's yours to do and someone else's to take and someone else's to give. As much as I love television - the biggest luxury of all is to know that you have a job to go to - I do miss that connection and having that power over my own performance on stage.” KnowsGivingEndsPlayJobsFilmReadingActorsMy OwnStageMissingTelevisionConnectionsPerformancesTheaterLuxuryPathetic Author:Julianna Margulies

“I have always been focused on my job. No profession allows you the luxury of being half-focused. If you're not into it, you're not there.

“I dont think any actor has the luxury of knowing exactly what scripts are going to turn out well and what ones arent. It would be wonderful to have that particular skill, and maybe people like Tom Cruise have it more than most, but you go into each project hoping that a good, if not great, film will come out the other end.” PeopleIfsThinkingWellsEndsWould BeFilmTurnsActorsKnowingWonderfulParticularSkillsProjectsScriptsLuxuryTomsCruiseGreat Film Author:Jonny Lee Miller
