William Lewis or Willie Lewis may refer to:...
take-control performances
You just have to take control of your own performance.
good-life class long
Of course the lower classes have always felt downtrodden and aspired to a better life. But there is this theory that people respond to a class structure in England - there was a time when people knew who they were and knew whom they served and as long as management wasn't abusive, it was a good life for people.
done theater
I've done classical theaters. I played Hamlet myself and Romeo.
school successful degrees
I was, if you like, a successful schoolboy in that I had a degree of talent in all the required things that make you a success at school.
sports playing-sports
I love playing sport.
growing-up swim height
I love going for a swim. Growing up in England, anywhere with a pool seems like the height of glamour to me.
eye people lucky
I guess I'm just good at playing repressed individuals. I'm lucky because those are often the roles that catch people's eyes.
mean intention bigs
I don't mean this grandly, but it was never my intention to live in L.A. and do a big network show.
interesting
Dramatically it's always more interesting to conceal rather than reveal things.
years two decision
I'd lived in LA for two years and I said to my agent that I wouldn't do any more network TV, because my family and I had just made the decision to live in England. It would be a whole year in LA shooting network TV.
acting particular isolated
Acting can be a narrow and isolated experience, because you only examine your particular part.
independent class ideas
You know, this idea of going around the world imposing democracy by growing a middle-class, a trading merchant class that is independent of your faith, is a good notion, but we're all partially different - it's no good imposing systems on people that it doesn't suit.
hero theatre my-hero
My heroes were all in the theatre.
jobs trying actors
You never know when you're taking a job, ever... but you try to take good scripts. That's all you can do as an actor - take the best thing available. Even then, it's not [really] in your control. Certainly not in film and TV, because there are so many other elements. You just have to take control of your own performance.
