life
I don't like talking about myself. I don't like talking about my personal life.
both left opera soon vowed
I vowed I would never do a commercial, or a soap opera - both of which I did as soon as I left the Acting Company and was starving.
blessed community cure good health help juvenile research support
Those of us who are blessed with good health must do all we can to help support the research community in their search for a cure for juvenile diabetes,
acceptable artist artistic creative heritage insanity living process reconcile sane socially tradition trying
I think it's part of that heritage or that tradition of the creative artist trying to reconcile the insanity and ruthlessness of the artistic process with living a sane and socially acceptable existence.
love sound throes woman
I love the sound of a woman in the throes of rapture - but not screamers.
thinking singers very-good
I just don't think I'm a very good singer.
actors fans talent
You know, actors are fans, too. And talent is very attractive to me.
looks language look-up
It was all completely incomprehensible to me. I was fearful of the language. You had to look up every third word.
kids people surprise
It never ceases to surprise me, the people I get to work with. I'm in a French film with Sandrine Bonnaire? I adore Sandrine Bonnaire. I'm doing a picture for Robert Redford? The Sundance Kid? I have to pinch myself sometimes.
thinking people president
Lots of people fantasize about what it would be like if they were president... Most think they'd be decent and wouldn't be corrupted at all, that they'd remain true to themselves.
kids gay men
Nobody sees the same movie. I'm sure there are people who saw Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and thought "Finally a gay movie about men who really care about each other. Thank God!" That's not what I saw necessarily but I don't think any two people see the same movie.
kissing men
Don't kiss a man who hasn't shaved.
relaxation mind connections
The technique's many benefits for actors include minimized tension, centeredness, vocal relaxation, and responsiveness, mind/body connection and about an inch and a half of additional height.
independent sacrifice trying
Well, the whole trick to doing an independent film, is to keep great pace and momentum. You're shooting maybe three times as many scenes in one day that you would on a big, luxurious budget on a luxurious schedule, and you try not to sacrifice quality for that. Things are just compressed, but essentially the same.
