I Love You Even When You're Sick

I Think It Helps To Get A Film Made Because People Who Put Money In Are Nervous. They Like To Have Something Recognisable Enough To Make Them Secure That There's A Pattern There - That Someone Else Put Their Money Into Something Like This And Made It Back.

I Feel More Comfortable In Drama. Comedy's Is A High-wire Act. I Find It Stressful. It's A Precision Science, In A Way. And When You're Filming, The Thing Comedy Depends On Becomes A Much More Difficult Commodity. The Thing You Depend On Is Spontaneity.

One Of My Grandfathers, Actually, Having Gone Out There As A Minister, Decided He Would Better Serve The People As A Doctor. So At A Very Late Age - At The Age Of 38 In Fact - He Changed Course And Decided To Become A Doctor.

There's A Paraphrase About Orson Welles Saying: "great Films Are Made By Great Directors And The Rest Are Made By Everyone Else." I've Been Very Lucky... Before I Start Insulting The Profession Of Directing, But I Think A Good Director Is Everything And A Bad Director Really Is Nothing At All.

The Skill Of A Good Actor Is To Make It Always Seem Like You're In That Fantastically Spontaneous Moment. Very Often, A Stand-up Comedian Has A Different Instinct, Which Is To Reinvent. Once You've Laid Down Some Material, And Made Them Laugh, You Move On And Find Some New Material.
