I'm a good actor in that sense for directors because I always do what they say.

Ellis Peters's historical detail is very accurate and very minute, and therefore is not only interesting to read but good for an actor to acquire a sense of the period. And the other thing I think is that an actor lives in the land of imagination.

But on this show, it's a good question because in the 35 shows that we've done now, I've really made a consistent effort to really shadow the directors because in many ways they have to be more prepared than feature directors.

My Cat
Cool cat
Good cat
Pussy cat
When I see him walking
Makes no sense to me
My cat is everywhere
We watch him on TV
My cat is amazing
He can play the guitar
He may not be an actor
But he's a pussy superstar
My cat
Cool cat
My cat is everywhere
Sees what he can see
He may not be an actor
He acts atrociously
My cat is amazing
He can play the guitar
He may not be an actor
But he's a pussy superstar
My cat isn't crazy
He's everything to me
My cat burns the bible
And he thinks it's so funny
He isn't very good
He isn't very smart
He may not be Picasso
But he is a work of art
Hates me as much as I hate you
My cat
Cool cat
Good cat
Pussy cat
When I see him walking
Makes no sense to me
My cat is everywhere
We watch him on TV
My cat is amazing
He can play the guitar
He may not be an actor
But he's a pussy superstar
My cat isn't crazy
He's everything to me
My cat burns the bible
And he thinks it's so funny
He isn't very good
He isn't very smart
He may not be Picasso
But he is a work of art
My cat is handsome
He can play the guitar
He can break my arm in seven places
He can eat a whole watermelon
My cat my cat

Directors and producers were afraid of a Dumont actor while at the same time they admired him.

But I don't really care for directors flaring up and trying to humble some actor, which they would do to try and make an example out of them so everybody else would stay on the ball - and David wasn't anything like that.

I'd love to see the rushes but it's just not allowed because directors and also a lot of actors feel that if they see their work, and the director likes what they're doing, the actor might try to correct their mistakes.

Obviously I'd love to work with any of these great directors because every time I've worked with them I've gained a tremendous amount as an actor. Each director has his own way of pushing you towards improving yourself.

I think it's easy for directors to stay fresh more than actors, especially once an actor becomes a star. It's hard for Russell Crowe to walk down a street or take a subway. I can fly coach.

I'm only wanted by directors for the image I give off, and it makes me angry. I always wanted to be an actor and not a beauty pageant winner.
An actor is an actor is an actor. The less personality an actor has off stage the better. A blank canvas on which to draw the characters he plays.

Actor Of Love
Hold on
I have found something I longing for
To fill the hollowness of my heart
But why I'm feeling more of sorrow
Before
I am the one who said: 'Oh, I'll control'
But now I realize you are my world
And it's waiting to break apart
I'm an actor of love
I'm trying to perfect
But I'm just fooling around
I'm an actor of love
I want to be your hero
But I've made myself a clown
I'm an actor of love
I need you by my side
But now you leave me alone
I'm an actor of love
I beg your forgiveness
But you refuse me so cold
Sometimes
We wonder why we should be together
Do we really dream of love forever?
Or we afraid to be alone
I'm an actor of love
I want to protect you
But I always hurt you bad
I'm an actor of love
I want to be your shield
But may turn someone you hate
I'm an actor of love
We kiss in the morning
But in night we have a war
I'm an actor of love
We care for each other
But we only circle round
If this love only makes me crazy
Take the story and just let it be
Tragedy or comedy
Or anything it wants to be

I do like to work with young directors because it's such a difficult business that I think after directors have been around a while sometimes, not always, but sometimes their passion gets siphoned off because they get hurt.

Somehow I got to be one of five or six actors that the directors would use as guinea pigs at this directing colloquium, where people pay to listen to and watch the directors direct.

I think Swedish directors are cowards. They know what works and then they only go after that. As an actor that is suicide. It is also why Swedish movies are going downhill; they are like semi warm bland milk, they don’t have their own language. My character situation at home was not interesting.
