Matt Will
real love-is clean
Love is messy. It's not something that's real clean.
thinking break-out able
One of my biggest fears is not being able to break out of a rut; of becoming a prisoner to my ways, unable to change course. But in my mid-thirties, I learned you can change your thinking.
greatest-fear growth important
One of my greatest fears is not being able to change, to be caught in a never-ending cycle of sameness. Growth is so important.
voice worry hearing
I only hear my own voice. When you start hearing other voices, then it's time to worry.
crazy thinking actors
I know this sounds kind of crazy, but I think we're all actors.
football fans
Football is nothing without fans.
football clubs wells
Football hooligans? Well, there are 92 club chairmen for a start.
would-be good-enough manchester-united
I never wanted Manchester United to be second to anybody. Only the best would be good enough.
country clubs modesty
In all modesty, my summing up of 1955-6 and 1956-7 must be that no club in the country could live with Manchester United.
men thinking play
The last thing I want to do is having someone get behind a Montgomery Clift biopic, and then just do the first script that came out. Sometimes it takes a long time for these things to gestate. And I'm only going to do it if it's the right story that's told for the right reason, and that's relevant to this day and age, as much as it pays homage to who this man was. Should that happen during the time when I'm still young enough to play him, perfect. And if not, hopefully someone else will get to play him because I do think it's an incredible story.
unique voice people
I love that Amazon has this incredibly unique, diplomatic process where people's voices are heard, and we're using this great interconnectedness we have, via the internet, to weigh in and to have a say in what we want to see and what we don't.
thinking class people
I took movement classes that I wore my double-breasted suits to. I worked on my elocution because people spoke differently then. I was really trying to toe the line. I think that if I had spoken exactly the way that people spoke back then, it probably would have alienated people
tycoons lasts speak
I at least felt the obligation to speak clearly [in 'The last Tycoon']. This is pre-Brando and pre-James Dean. Nobody mumbled back then.
character scott-fitzgerald world
I very comprehensively studied Irving Thalberg and his biographies. He's who [Scott]Fitzgerald roughly modeled the character after. He worked for him, as a writer, when he was at MGM. And, of course, I revisited the novel and the politics of MGM and the studio system at the time and familiarized myself with the world. There was a great deal of physical and literary work that went into it.
