37 Seconds, Well Used, Is A Lifetime.

So, Most Of It Was Done Over The Phone. But One Of The First Things I Did As A Director, Because It's One Of The First Things You Should Do, Even Though Most Don't, Is To Ask Good Actors Who They Think Is Right For The Part. They Know Better Than Anybody. But Without Missing A Beat Maggie Said Pauline Collins. I Didn't Know Pauline Because I Hadn't Seen Shirley Valentine, But Then I Saw This Thing That She Did With Woody Allen [you Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger], In Which She Was Wonderful As A Psychic, And I Said To Her On The Phone: "the Dialogue Seemed Improvised."

What Makes Divorce Happen Is That You Can't Be In The Same Space Any More, For Whatever Reason - But The Love Stays. And That's The Killer. That's Where The Vehemence And Anger And Rage Comes From.

I Walked Out Of The Theater And Started Crying. My Wife Asked Me, 'why Are You Crying?' I Said, 'because I Can't Do That.' I Didn't Know How He Did It. I've Never Seen Anything Like That. It's Like This Feat, This Rodin Sculpture To Me. It's Like Hearing An Opera Singer And The Tears Go Down Your Face Because It's Not Human What They're Doing. It's Like Sounds Of Heaven.

In Terms Of The Stars, The Only Ones I Cast Were Billy Connolly And Pauline Collins. I Was In Los Angeles Working And A Lot Of This Took Place On The Telephone. I'd Met Maggie [smith] Once And I'd Come Back-stage, Which I'm Usually Loathe To Do Because As An Actor You Don't Want People Coming Back Because You Want To Get Home [laughs].

I Love Acting, And I`m Not Going To Determine What I Do Based On What I Fear Other People Might Think. I Do What I Want To Do.
