My favorite Bond films are the really early ones, the first ones in fact, like 'Dr. No' and 'From Russia with Love.'

I think that sometimes in theater, I don't prepare much beyond going to the rehearsals.

I love the characters I've had the opportunity to play.

I'm not tortured and neurasthenic - I'm really not.

The most amazing thing is when you find yourself watching someone in the café or something doing something weird. It's amazing what people do, isn't it, when you just look at them, when you take the time to look.

Even today, England is a very repressed, repressive country, and there's pressure to be kind of a certain way, so people do things that ultimately make them sad.

I don’t think that actors are necessarily any more uncomfortable in their skin than anyone else. I suppose I feel more comfortable in my skin now, but you’re always playing a character, aren’t you? You tell different versions of yourself to different people and vice versa. Here, or in the photo shoot or wherever, it’s a representation of you. It’s not you-you. That’s how you get through it.
