I'm Very In Love With The Fact

If I Were To Play Somebody Who Ran A Fish And Chip Shop, I Would Not Work In A Fish And Chip Shop For Three Months. Staring At Chips Is Not Going To Help Me In My Performance.

I've Never Had To Turn My Hand To Anything For Monetary Gain, Other Than Pretending To Be Somebody Else. I'm Deeply Fortunate.

I Told Myself That I Would Not Go Back To The Camps As An Actor Ever Again, That I Was Very Frightened Of Wearing A Yellow Star. It Was Fear, It Was Cowardice, I Was.

I'm Convinced That Had I Not Changed My Name, I Don't Think I Would Have Had Quite The Same Career Curve That I Eventually Had.

My Wife And I Have Now Founded Lavender Pictures. If One Has One's Own Company, There Are Very Few Surprises, But There's Still The Actual Thrill Of Trying To Get These Projects Off The Ground. We're Meeting With Some Measure Of Success. Always, Now And At Any Stage Of My Career, I'm Open To Ambush, But There Have Been The Most Extraordinary Set Of Coincidences, Which Continues Through My Journey, And I Find It Thrilling. Often, Out Of Left Field And Quite Randomly, Comes A Project And I Think, "my God, There You Are!" It's Quite Beautiful, Really.
