I was slightly disheartened when three of my films didn’t work at the box-office. But the silver lining is that people did appreciate my work in those films. Had my performance gone unnoticed, I would’ve been in big trouble then.
My greatest strength as an actor is that I follow my director’s brief completely. The film is always the director’s visual baby.
I make films from the heart. I want to concentrate on the job of doing great and honest performances, and I’m gonna get better with every performance of mine, with every film of mine.
I still believe that ‘No Smoking’ is one of my best performances.
I don’t have a problem being labeled a sex symbol, though I personally don’t feel very sexy about myself.
Whenever there were parties, I wasn’t invited because I began to be like that character. In a way, that contributed to the success of the performance.
There is one confrontation scene toward the end of the picture. In the middle of the scene, I thought, That’s Sean Connery! I don’t know how else to describe Sean Connery. I still feel that way.
With Connery, he does act. He is in complete command. He completely trusts the person first, then the instrument. I’ve worked with his son also, on a picture in Russia.
With Dick Smith there, and the words of Peter Shaffer… they’ve got to be the most beautiful descriptions in music ever written on film or in literature. And we could hear the music accompanying the words… What more can you ask for?
