canadian-actor dirty later money paid week
I had no money at all back then. I was later paid $600 a week for The Dirty Dozen, which was lovely, after having no money for years.
brings donald few screen smiling
is someone who can own the screen for a few minutes, someone who brings this extraordinary authority, his own smiling madness. See if Donald Sutherland is free!
president-snow mockingjay
It's the things we love most that destroy us.
directors enough forsaken
I was so disappointed [with movie Forsaken], but maybe I hadn't talked enough with the director. I don't know. But, Kiefer worked it out. Kiefer took it and re-edited it. I don't know whether he talks about that. He's probably more discreet than I am because Jon is a friend of his. Now, it fulfills what I was hoping for, and what we were working on and doing.

He doesn't translate well into our generation.
mistake years dumb
Everything was my fault. I was so dumb. But if I hadn't made the mistakes I made, I wouldn't have met the wonderful woman I've been married to for over 30 years, so I guess that makes the mistakes OK.
dad ideas actors
I come from Nova Scotia, and I'd never seen a theater or been inside of a theater. When I was 17, my dad asked me what I wanted to do, and I said I thought I would like to be an actor. I didn't have any idea what it was to be an actor. None. I'd wanted to be either an actor or a sculptor, which are both essentially the same thing. That's how it all started for me.
treasure time-left wanted
We don't have that much time left to do it. I'm 80. I wanted to be Walter Huston to his John Huston. I wanted him to direct me, not in The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, but something. We'll see. We can't predict anything.
amount bit canadian-actor certain fortune four good hard partner pursuit terrific truth whatever work worked
You have a little bit of talent, a certain amount of good fortune and a lot of hard work in pursuit of whatever truth you can find in it, and if you are really lucky, a terrific partner and I have that and those four things worked out for me.
canadian-actor love
But no, I love acting, it's a wonderful job.
along canadian-actor joe specific
Joe Wright called me and I also had some trepidation along those lines but he said no, it would work. He had a very clear and specific idea of what he wanted to do.
