As an actor, I'll play anything.

My closest friends are Roger Moore, who is an actor, Sean Connery, who is an actor, Terry O'Neill, who is a photographer, Johnny Gold, who was the boss of Tramp, and Leslie Bricusse, who is a composer.

If you're a leading actor you don't work with another actor. You work with a lady.

I don't want to be an English actor doing the greatest American accent you've ever heard. I want to be an American doing nothing.

I've been on movies where I literally couldn't hear what the other actor was saying. It's very awkward.

If I work with a bad actor, my reaction is to immediately become worse than they are.

The three actors I admire the most are all dead. Humphrey Bogart, Spencer Tracy and the French actor, Jean Gabin. They're all very natural, sort of masculine without being overly macho.

I just work in order to improve myself as an actor which is what I've always done.

You can see all sorts of things in film acting if you know where to look and what to look for. One thing I often notice is that the actor is looking for his mark, the place where he has to stand to be in the right place in the shot.
