A lot of movie stars are not great actors; they're just very good-looking. And when they start to age and they don't have the looks any more, then it's over.

Movie stars have careers - actors work, and then they don't work, and then they work again.

There's this lingering philosophy that movie stars shouldn't do TV.

The difference between a movie star and a movie actor is this - a movie star will say, 'How can I change the script to suit me?' and a movie actor will say. 'How can I change me to suit the script?'

If you're a movie actor, you're on your own - you cannot control the stage. The director controls it.

Movie acting is about covering the machinery. Stage acting is about exposing the machinery. In cinema, you should think the actor is playing himself, if he's that good. It looks very easy. It should. But it's not, I assure you.
