I'm Not A Conventional Leading Man At

One Of The Best Things That Ever Happened To Me Was Rocky Horror Being A Total Flop In New York As A Play. I Mean, It Was A Disaster, And It Was The Night Of The Long Knives As Far As The Critics Were Concerned.

But We Live In A Modern World, You Know, And, And Also It Does Seem To Me That If You - That Whatever Talents You Have, It... I Mean It May Sound A Bit Absurd But I, I Think It's Your, Absolutely Your Duty To Resolve Them, You Know?

I've Never Modeled Myself On Anybody, But There Are A Lot Of People Whose Work I Really Admire And Attitudes I Certainly Subscribe To.

I Really Like The Way That Jack Nicholson [acts] In Particular Works. I Like The Fact That He Takes Enormous Risks. He's An Enormously Disciplined Actor Who Seems To Be Totally Capable Of Dealing With The Business As A Business And Yet Drop It Totally When He's Working.

I Want To Establish A Wide Range And Play All Kinds Of Parts. It's That Sort Of Acting Career I Really Respect. I Like To Turn A Sharp Left From Whatever I've Done Before Because That Keeps Me Awake. That's Why I Want To Be An Actor - I Don't Want To Play Endless Variations On One Character.
