The less you know about me, the easier it is to convince you that I am that character on screen. — © Kevin Spacey
The less you know about me, the easier it is to convince you that I am that character on screen.
The less you know about me the easier it is to convince you that I'm the character on screen.
I'm going to pull myself together for a while and think-try to determine what character of a woman I am; for, candidly, I don't know. By all the codes which I am acquainted with, I am a devilishly wicked specimen of the sex. But some way I can't convince myself that I am. I must think about it.
I'm supposed to convince you, for two hours, that I'm somebody else. Now if you know everything about my life, if you think you've got me figured out and you think you know all my dark secrets, how am I ever going to convince you that I'm somebody else?
To me, casting is all about finding a character within the actor off the screen as much as on the screen.
The less people know about me, the easier my job is.
TV becomes easier because you get to spend time with that character. It's going to go on for a while, and the more you know something, the easier it becomes, the less nerves you have about it, and the better it is for improv because you have that camaraderie between cast regulars. In film, it's harder because you got to get in and get out.
It's so much easier to convince yourself you're madly in love with someone when you know nothing about him.
I am an actor and I do not have to relate to whatever I play on screen them at a personal level. What is important is to understand the character, do enough homework to know the frame of mind of the character or his back story.
When I am dubbing for my character, if I laugh at the figure on the screen, I know I have done well.
I think I think in the moment. So when I'm in character, I'm in character, and I'm obviously thinking about what's going on around me, but it's easier to do stuff when you're in character.
It's much easier to hate someone on screen, if you actually like them off screen. It's a more enjoyable ride. There's nothing personal about it.
It's tough to get any movie made, but unless it's a movie about race or culture or ethnicity, it's becoming less and less important who's playing what. You see that on the big screen and the small screen, and I think that's great. That's exciting.
The less people know about me in reality, the more they can accept of me as a character.
It's a lot easier to convince uninformed people than it is to convince politicians.
The less people know about you, the more you understand how beautiful life is. It's good when you exist only on screen. I don't want them to take me home. I love to have my privacy.
I have never painted a self-portrait. I am less interested in myself as a subject for a painting than I am in other people, above all women... There is nothing special about me. I am a painter who paints day after day from morning to night... Who ever wants to know something about me... ought to look carefully at my pictures.
