I've got actor friends who didn't get breaks, who struggle and worry about things that I'm fortunate not to have to worry about.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I do get clocked. But it's not invasive to the point where it's upsetting. It doesn't encroach.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I've done a number of things based on real people or true stories or based on books, and I'm a great believer that you have to be true to the script.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I can't remember ever being involved in a fight in a movie where I haven't done most of it.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I do a lot better if I sit around and think about a character for a couple of months.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I had to ride a horse once. In 'King Arthur.' I said I could ride, but I had to call for lessons on the day the deal was signed. I started out on this little chunky thing and slowly moved up. It was months of work.
Quote by -Clive Owen
There's something to play if there's conflict going on. Whatever that conflict is, that's where drama is; if the character is grappling with something you've got something to play, there's layers to it.
Quote by -Clive Owen
When you are shooting action, there is a satisfying thing because your objectives are very clear.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I live in London and I love living in a gun free environment and long may it continue.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I actually really love working with young actors because they're so responsive and instinctive, and it's a much less honed craft that they're employing.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I think that Phil Kaufman is one of the best directors that I have come across.
Quote by -Clive Owen
Parenthood and family come first for me, and when I'm not working I'm cool with the Teletubbies.
Quote by -Clive Owen
One of the things I'm most proud of about my career is the fact I've managed to keep options open.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I just like to keep challenging myself, keep it varied. It's a craft, and I'm constantly trying to learn and get better at it.
Quote by -Clive Owen
You go back to those films of the '40s and '50s and hear the dialogue, the way the people played off each other - the wordplay. I think we've really lost that in movies.
Quote by -Clive Owen
The financial implode is bound to be reflected in the movies that are being made, there's no question.
Quote by -Clive Owen
The thing about Hemingway that people forget is that all the stuff he did was at a time where people weren't traveling that much. At 19 he travels to Italy. He goes to the Spanish Civil War. He goes to China, he goes to Africa so at that time to travel that much is really incredible.
Quote by -Clive Owen
If you explode onto the scene at a very young age, there are so many people pulling you in different directions. It takes time to recalibrate and see what's important.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I watch a film and the most important thing to me is what I think of the movie.
Quote by -Clive Owen
Very often when you see families it's all perfect and neat, and parenting isn't like that. You do have constant negotiations. Things are ever developing and ever changing, and you constantly have to evaluate how you deal with your kids.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I think I am more attracted to characters with a subtext, whatever that is and they don't necessarily have to be virtuous, but they have to at least be human.
Quote by -Clive Owen
I treat any scene the same - dialogue, action - you're still creating something in character. It's all acting, fighting.
Quote by -Clive Owen
Every journalist who is not too stupid or too full of himself to notice what is going on knows that what he does is morally indefensible.
