Dougray Scott quotes about
charm confidence escapes great history incredibly revealed turn wit
You could tell immediately there was a great history to this guy, as revealed in the pilot. He has a sense of confidence about how things will turn out. He has great charm and great wit and is incredibly intelligent and meticulous. Nothing escapes him.
moments involved
The point is to be involved in the moment.
horse military book
I read all the books on Fairfax in the British Library, did a lot of horse riding and studied military tactics of the time, finding out that he actually laid his rose garden out in strategic formations! But Method acting is a label I don't really understand, because there's a method to everybody's acting. In terms of jumping into a character's skin, I try to immerse myself in the role as much as possible to bring me closer to them. All I do is what's required to achieve what I want to achieve.
dry documentaries film
You're making a movie, not a documentary. If you made a film like the historians would like you to make, you're not going to go and see it. I'd rather see paint dry.
nice hands development
I got involved in script development from the beginning. It was nice to see how a film gets made right from the beginning. It was quite hands-on for me.
maps scripts wonderful
I'm doing a Dylan Thomas film, Map of Love, with Mick Jagger producing again. It's a wonderful script.
areas fishing golf great industrial lots quite
Wonderful, quite idyllic, actually. It's very green, beautiful. Lots of golf courses, which was great for me. Lots of fishing areas, but lots of industrial areas as well, which weren't so nice.
attach financing quite
It quite often happens that they attach a name to a project and it doesn't get all the financing it needs.
imagination movies portrayed thankfully
You'd have to have one hell of an imagination to completely make up a story, but historians are very anal about what they think should be portrayed on screen. Thankfully they don't make movies; we do.
