attitudes certain changed toughness
Our attitudes have changed a lot, really, and so there's a certain toughness about it.
dad home sacrifice
My dad served in the Air Force as ground crew for several years, and doesn't really talk about it. I know that it's there. I think my main thing about direct or indirect experiences as near to home as it were is the idea of self-sacrifice really.
funny-things space light
The space and light up there in Norfolk is wonderfully peaceful. I find myself doing funny things like gardening, and cooking, which I rarely do in London.
desire actors shy
I've never had a desire to be famous. Lots of actors are actually extremely shy. I have shy areas.

Surely the job of fiction is to actually tell the truth. It's a paradox that's at the heart of any kind of #storytelling.
jobs reading thinking
I'm just a hired actor who was hired for a particular job, but I think one of the joys of reading the script was the way that the personal and the global are woven together.
nice jamaica islands
I read about this hotel that was great, down in the south of the island, not in a touristy area. I had no particular desire ever to go to Jamaica, but I thought, what the hell? Sounds nice. Let's go!
