The best of us develop later. In high school I was an idiot. Unsociable type - other children I was not interested in. Now it is called dyslexia or impaired attention. And I was just a dumbass. But that is why he became an actor.Russia drew me since childhood. At fourteen I was reading "the history of the Russian revolution Trotsky. Of course, when teachers were asked, Communist I or a Marxist, I do not very well understand what they are saying. And children to such details didn't care: just called me "Bolsa".
My life philosophy? You should always understand what they are capable of only one of disdain. Whatever I did in my youth, they said, "You're hopeless". Father said: "Hopeless", the peers said: "Hopeless". So then all that happened to me in life, for me that was a big revelation.
At first I was physically dangerous on stage. When I played in Manchester, Director I was fired because I almost broke someone ridge. He said that I was too dangerous to release into the scene. But I was lucky, because he advised me to go to one of those "trendy drama schools", which he did not approve. And I went to RADA (Royal Academy of dramatic art. - Esquire), where I started my real career.
Most actors - pretty simple-minded people who consider themselves complex natures. Remember how I heard about Robert De Niro in "Raging bull" and thought: "should Definitely see this movie". I went for him in a small new York kinoteatris, reeking of urine; someone out there was like, a few people were sleeping. It was something like a moment of truth: so that's why all our efforts?
Now I don't care at the theatre with a high bell tower. Honestly, I cannot understand why some refer to him so tenderly. What the hell us throughout the theater four hundred years ago? Who needs it? Roll it into the asphalt. Think, dear! Anyway it's dead. What Lear is better: this or that, who cares? You do what you did before you fifteen thousand actors.
All the actors
in their most crazy years want to play hamlet. I also wanted. And now I think it's like the end. Now I am absolutely not interested in Shakespeare and all the British stuff. And when interested, it was one naked ambition - just wanted fame.
If someone easy on recoverym and has a bright personality and energy, it threatens a lot of people who do not want unnecessary worries. Think about those who are undermining the foundations. Those who balamuthia water. People like Oliver stone, who really do something, provoke people the power to talk. The common man wants to be surrounded by trustworthy people. And that's fine, in my opinion. But if things were so, the world would be boring.
I don't have favorite roles. I'm just working. Learn your role, know what I'm saying, and if you start something, do it right. I come in, do their job and go home. Then get a check - up and the rest is history. People say it's cynical, but they are not right. It is practical.
People who blame you
bribery, actually just jealous. Recently one of my close friend met in London with the casting agent from the National theatre, and the woman asked him terribly condescending: "so, how's Tony? " He replied: "Very satisfied, he is in Hollywood". "Sorry, sold out", " she said. "Yes, " replied my friend. And another great rich and famous". She's just green.
There is nothing more razdrazhalasOh, than virtue and vysokogradusnost. I'm not saying that he is not fake. The same fake as everyone else. We are all fakes. All charlatans, all flawed, all liars.
Hannibal Lekter actually quite an interesting character. I think we secretly admire it. He embodies the untold part of ourselves, desires, fantasies and dark side of our soul, and we can be truly healthy, only if you acknowledge their existence. Probably, we would be as foolhardy as he is.
I like my loneliness. I've never let anyone close, all fintel Yes stalled. Of course, I represent warmth and friendliness. But inside of me was always empty. No compassion, only negligence and so all my life.
There was a time
when I drank everything that flows. Now no one does not drink, does not smoke and do not eat carbohydrates. Oddly enough, I'm glad I was an alcoholic. Of course, I'm sorry that suffered because of others. But to be in the shoes of an alcoholic is amazingly rich life experience. Happened to the days when I drank a bottle of tequila and I did not care to live or die. So then I was gone, devastated bankruptcy in the emotional sense. I loved the tequila.
Nodrugs , I did not never. But I had so much tequila that I quite imagine what an acid trip.
A good script always visible on the first five pages. Such things, I feel it in my gut. If I can't read more than four pages, I already clear: it's not for me. I am most apprehensive of scenarios where it describes the scenery. "Sunrise over the desert, are piled up on the horizon... " - the whole essay will be read, until you get to the dialogue. Nonsense.
My father was a Bakerand the culture he was shit. Sometimes I play the piano, and he comes, flour, shaking the dust from their hairy hands and says, "What's the fuck do you play? " I say, "Beethoven". And the father: "it is not Surprising that he became deaf. For God's sake, go out and do something". Now I largely understand his cynicism.
I like Spielberg. He takes such films, what he would like to see. He is not like those smart-emotions that make movies for their friends, and then they had to look no wants. On-site Spielberg is always full of passion and enthusiasm and is very fast. He doesn't like to fool around wasting time.
I've always wanted
to achieve success. Wanted to meet with Katherine Hepburn and albert Finney. And especially with Peter O Tulum. I admired O Tulum. I remember the first time we went with him to the bar. He said: "Take "Guinness". How are you feeling, dear? Okay, let's have a drink and go for our "Oscars". I admire this kind of madness, delight drunkards and Razgulyai. And I once was. A few years ago, I again saw O'toole, and he said, "Say, do you have a halo around his head - not that we, sinful. When you quit drinking, lose some friends.
Life is choreography. Nothing to ask, nothing to wait and take it all in stride. I think: "What people say about me or think of me. I am, and do what you do, just for fun - here's how this game is. A wonderful game of life in its own field. There is nothing to win and nothing to lose, there is no need to prove anything. It is not necessary to turn himself inside out - why? Because I'm essentially a nobody and always was nothing". It came to me ten years ago during a deep depression when I was sitting in a Roman hotel. I repeated it to myself like a mantra. And since then my life has been a lot of amazing events.
