Los Angeles is not a town full of airheads. There's a great deal of wonderful energy there.
Alan Rickman

Originally, theater was my life. It was what I assumed I'd spend my working life doing - if I was lucky. Then along came movies.

One of the most, in a weird way, encouraging things a director can say to an actor - I know this as an actor - is when you ask them a question, they say, I don't know - 'cause it means there's some space there for you to find out. And it means that there's going to be a process.

I think there's some connection between absolute discipline and absolute freedom.

I have every sympathy for writers. It's a mystery to me what they do. I can edit. I can cross out and say, 'I'm not saying that' or, 'How about we move this to here? Wouldn't that make that bit of the story better?' But where any of it comes from is beyond me. I will never write a play or a novel.

I am hellbent on defying your expectations, at every turn, and even if you don't like what's being done, I dare you to find it uninteresting.

Image
On film you put all your energies into a single glance.
Alan Rickman
Image
I think the thing about film is, as it gets proved by a lot of young filmmakers now, that the medium will just go on reinventing itself, and so you just hope to be a part of that and not a part of some kind of endless regurgitation or 'Here I am doing what you know I do' kind of thing.

My definition of palatable might be slightly different from yours.
Alan Rickman
Image
I can only see my limitations. That's just who I am.
Alan Rickman
Image
I'm a lot less serious than people think.
Alan Rickman
Image
What's interesting about the process of acting is how often you don't know what you're doing.
Alan Rickman
Image
Actors are agents of change. A film, a piece of theater, a piece of music, or a book can make a difference. It can change the world.
Alan Rickman
Image
I like it when stories are left open.

I'm still living the life where you get home and open the fridge and there's half a pot of yogurt and a half a can of flat Coca-Cola.
Alan Rickman
Image
That's it then. Cancel the kitchen scraps for lepers and orphans, no more merciful beheadings, and call off Christmas.
Alan Rickman
Image
From my experience, I think that every actor has to make sure that they're in charge of their own career somehow or other.

I don't think it's right that everybody knows everything about me.

I was a student in London in the '70s, so CBGB really wasn't on my radar at all. Obviously, I was aware of the emergence of the Police in England and as an art student, I was very aware of David Byrne, but I suppose my musical taste at that time certainly didn't stretch towards the Dead Boys or the Ramones.

England in the '60s and the '70s was everything that history has said it was phenomenally exciting, musically.
