british-actor editing location mentors million people work
My mentors were my editiors. You come from location work with a million people and questions, and you get into the editing room, and its two people.
people trying credit
I have come close to producing films. But generally by the time they hit the screen, there's about 50 people with producer credits, so what's the point. I usually find scripts I like with no money attached and take them to producers that I know and try to raise finance.
couple night people
Now, people can watch the entire first series over a period that would probably take you a couple of nights.
block interesting people
Mostly, people watch their shows online and they watch them in a block. They don't have to tolerate the commercials, and they also don't have to wait another week. People binge watch. It's interesting.
jobs lost otherwise
Some jobs, which would otherwise have been lost in the industry, have not been lost because of NAFTA.

There just seems to be more acceptance now of... other kinds of British films, than the picture-postcard ones.

Bring back dueling, I say. Drive-by sword fight.
acting british british-actor cultural schools share sure
British acting schools are diferent. There is a cultural difference. Americans, Africans, British, I'm not sure we share a language.
awake british-actor kept questions worried
Before I started, I worried about what I was going to say to the actors. It kept me awake at night. Sometimes you get the questions wrong.
absolute barrel bought jeremy merchant
Americans have bought lock, stock, and barrel the Jeremy Irons-Kenneth Branagh England. And it's fake. It's an absolute con. Merchant Ivory? Bollocks.
acting fun great possibly pretend
For me, acting's just great fun. A lot more fun than making sculptures, so that's what I wanted to do. It wasn't any great calling-maybe years later, when I'm 60 or whatever, I'll pretend it was, who knows?! But acting is just the most fun I could ever possibly have in my life... and it still is.
deal good land legacy looks
It looks like Legacy got a really good deal on that land.
celibacy everywhere family harder kids
I try and take the family with me everywhere I can. It's getting harder the more kids I have. But celibacy sucks.
acting break kids mean serious sharp
Acting is a short, sharp shock, and then I have a two-year break to do some directing. I mean you have to stop-OK, be serious about it-so I've put the kids through school.
