All we did in Alabama was have a read through with the script, but there was, 'No, well, it needs more. You've got to do this, Albert. You've got to do that, Jessica.' It didn't feel like that at all. (work)
From the beginning of the film, I thought that I was somehow in safe, good hands with Tim. I think that all the actors did. (movies)
He just lets you go, really. When we were kind of supposed to rehearse, I don't remember rehearsing at all. We just sort of gossiped and chatted. (unknown)
He tells you stories, but then, after a while, when you want more, he doesn't give you more. He insists on this old elaboration, the old stories that never changes. (unknown)

He'd just run, run all the time, and he walks about, doesn't he, he never stops. I think that they put an odometer on him one day and he walked miles. (unknown)
I don't enter, I'm entered. It's up to someone else. It's up to them. (unknown)
I don't plan on digging that stuff up that I've kept down with my feet. Why would I want to dig it all up and examine it like an archaeologist? (unknown)
I don't really look back at all. When I've made a film, I've made it. They kind of go out into the world and they're on their own really. (movies)
I don't think that we necessarily lie. I mean, we make our living by pretending that we're someone else. I don't tell tall tales. I always tell the truth. (unknown)
I have this wonderful voice lady called Carla Mayer who lives in L.A. and I have worked with her on a couple of movies. (actors)
I haven't seen the film yet because I just got in from London. In the scenes where the two characters are bantering with each other, it is like bobbing at the net in tennis. (movies)
I like playing accents, and doing things like that, it was fun. It was fun. (unknown)
I mean, I did a film, a musical of 'Scrooge', in '70, and the tricks were done by flat clothes and mirrors. I hope that the day will come when we don't have to turn up at all. (movies)
I think that I'm busy in the present, and I don't want to go back. Well, there's been an unauthorized biography, and you can't stop them. It didn't worry me. (movies)
I think that one of Tim's great qualities and abilities is in what seems like a thumbnail sketch to get something quite telling, very simply, when you're doing it or being in that thumbnail sketch, you don't feel that it's important. (unknown)
I was flatly surprised by that, that we both came from across the pond, but I've played Americans before and so had Ewan and so, I don't think that Tim thought it was a problem. (unknown)
I was in London. It's a long way to go for a very long party, sitting there for six hours not having a cigarette or a drink. It's a waste of time. (unknown)
I'm doing another Churchill. I did a Churchill for HBO and that was up to 1939 and there's talk of the war years. They were going to do it this fall, but the script wasn't going to be ready. (unknown)
I'm not bothered by the paparazzi and I don't feel hemmed in, I've never felt that. My youth, mind you, there wasn't quite the same attention to celebrities as there is now, but I've never felt that. (youth)
It was great to do and it's exciting to do those things. That's another thing, that one enjoys the game. (unknown)
It's a marvellous life, a gregarious life that we've had. We're very lucky in that way. Unlike writers or painters, we don't sit down in front of a blank canvas and say, 'How do I start? Where do I start?' (unknown)
My dad was great. He was very droll, very dry. (fathers)
My girlfriend and I rented a nice house on the river and I was there for about two and a half months, and we were just out of Alabama. I hardly got to see Alabama. (love)
No, no, I go where the work is, wherever it is. I'll go, I mean, if I select it, but I don't try and ration it out or balance it at all. (work)
No, she is right up there with the best I've worked with. I was very impressed with her, I really was. (relations)
