The Last Thing I Would Attempt To

Some People Come Up To Be Directors By Coming Through The Camera Department And There's Not A Lot Of Women In The Camera Department. The Ones That Are Have To Kind Of Prove They're One Of The Boys, I Think. I Don't Want To Get Into Trouble With Generalisations But I Think It's A Fair Observation.

I Often Think It Can Often Be Very Difficult For Comedians To Revisit The Same Gag. I Think Russell's A Bit More Than A Comedian.

But It's Interesting Being Directed By Someone Who Is A Very Good Actor. There's Nothing Like It. It Might Sound Like A Territorial Thing About What I Do, But I Don't Think You Can Understand What It Is Until You've Done It. I Know That To Be A Fact.

No Matter How Much Technique You Draw On Or How Much Training You Have, Acting Is A Mystery.

The English People, A Lot Of Them, Would Not Be Able To Understand A Word Of Spoken Shakespeare. There Are People Who Do And I'm Not Denying They Exist. But It's A Far More Philistine Country Than People Think.
