The job is the same - to attempt to make it sound like you've never said it before and as if it's just occurred to you. And that's the same whether you're on camera or whether you're on stage in a room full of people.
Bill Nighy
I'm not good at watching myself which I think is perfectly natural. I don't give myself a hard time about it. I am the worst critic.
Bill Nighy
You tell yourself that you're not auditioning but of course you work like crazy, and you prepare like mad. And you think, Well, I won't get that job. But maybe they'll have another job sometime, and they'll remember that I was good.
