More quotes by Clive Owen
Action scenes are not that different from other scenes.
Clive Owen
I treat any scene the same - dialogue, action - you're still creating something in character. It's all acting, fighting.
Clive Owen
I would never give anybody any advice about anything.
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.
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.
Clive Owen
I go off and make movies I come home, and I'm a dad and I hang with my girls.
Clive Owen
I don't think you necessarily identify and believe in the motifs of the character, but you have to want to play it and want to commit to the lines.
Clive Owen
I was very keen on playing a victim.
Clive Owen
I guess I'm not that metrosexual. My bathroom cabinet is hardly overflowing with products. I only really have my stuff for shaving. I can't honestly say I moisturise, though I probably should.
Clive Owen
I do wear suits all the time.
Clive Owen
Parenthood and family come first for me, and when I'm not working I'm cool with the Teletubbies.
Clive Owen
Acting is all about likability.
Clive Owen
I'm a huge fan of 'The Exorcist.'
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.
Clive Owen
I believe that we live in a time of fractured families where maybe fathers aren't getting enough time to see their kids because life's complications and hardships get in the way of those things.
Clive Owen
The sexiest part of the body is the eyes. That's what I believe.
Clive Owen
There's certainly a huge element of luck in me ending up where I've ended up.
Clive Owen
Something I don't like seeing in other people is naked ambition, when somebody is really pushing hard to get to where they want to be. That's the way I look at that word - like you must be stepping on someone to get there. And I've never been comfortable with that.
Clive Owen
No matter who the character is and how big their role, that each person in the story is a human being and deserves respect. Even if they're in the story for ten seconds, I didn't want you to just see them as this entity passing through that's serving all of the other people.
Clive Owen
For an actor, it's very important to get a clear idea of what a director wants, and their intention for what they want to get out of a scene and how they want to shoot it. Having that knowledge is really valuable, for an actor. It means you can deliver more.
