Comedy. It was just huge in my house. Peter Sellers and Alec Guinness, Monty Python and all those James Bond movies were highly regarded.

Some forms of reality are so horrible we refuse to face them, unless we are trapped into it by comedy. To label any subject unsuitable for comedy is to admit defeat.

Many businessmen fail to understand Python principles--the ultimate absurdity was an offer from America to buy the 'format' of the Python shows, that is, Monty Python without the Pythons--corporate methods do not have the conceptual framework to deal with an anarchist collective, run by intelligent and arrogant comedians who have proved that their method works.

Monty Python crowd; half of them came from Cambridge, and half of them came from Oxford. But, there seems to be this jewel, this sort of two headed tradition of doing comedy, of doing sketches, and that kind of thing.

We should do another 10 Bad Boys movies. I could come in in one of those electric wheelchairs, like Peter Sellers in Dr Strangelove, just shouting away.

Personally, I have only one great regret - that I never "dared" enough. If at all.

No day of my life passes without someone saying the words 'Monty Python' to me. It's not bad.
Failure has a thousand explanations. Success doesn't need one.

18.07.2009 James Bond & Riddick
James Bond movies - tonight’s edition
of From Russia With Love – are meant
for consumers – I’m an avid consumer
of James Bond movies
Always ready to hang on Sean Connery’s
lips, admire the heroine, weave a new
dream around the Bond framework, no
work or reading done
Tonight is filled with fun, Chronicles Of
Riddick* coming up, his voice, his mag-
nificent poise, everything conspires to
create the ultimate hero
I LOVE getting swept off my feet by
movie hero’s; sharing the aberrations
of 21st century consumer society…
* Vin Diesel in “Chronicles of Riddick” and
even more enchanting in “The Pacifier”.

I prefer full-length camera shots because the body can act better than the face.

I can't tell you how much we laughed on the set to have Alec Guinness in a scene with a big, furry dog that's flying a space ship.

Seen On Screen
Never Say Never Again –
I love it when James Bond
blows up Fatima Blush with
his fountain pen, I want to
blow up everyone crossing
me in anything, such as the
lady in the black Golf chal-
lenging me in my white
monster today
I was cruising happily
when she tried to cut in
from the left, without batting
an eye-lid I kept on the tail of
the car in front of me, she fell
back, then attacked from the
right, trying to push me from
the road, I continued
Without slowing down, the same
adrenaline rush as when James
Bond killed and destroyed enemies
of good citizenry – I point my finger
at everyone while making explosive
noises, seeing a signature James
Bond girl when I look in the mirror
Oh, lovely imagination, to become
one of the characters I have seen
on screen, used to act out movies
at school, today I still do, and
I always will!

An actor is at his best a kind of unfrocked priest who, for an hour or two, can call on heaven and hell to mesmerize a group of innocents.
