More quotes by Clive Owen
I don’t mind looking like I need a good wash and a good meal... Any actor who starts taking ‘sex symbol’ seriously or thinks of themselves as a sex symbol has got some serious problems.
Clive Owen
Ultimately, to have a career in movies, to a certain extent, certainly in England, you can't sustain a career in just English movies.
Clive Owen
I think there is a lot of overexplaining both in writing and acting. People don't need to be hit on the head.
Clive Owen
I'm just constantly trying to renew and give myself new challenges and push myself to uncomfortable places, trying to get better.
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 certainly am not a great believer in over-rehearsing between actors, and certainly not doing the dialogue too much.
Clive Owen
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.
Clive Owen
One of the things I love, more than anything, is jumping around and playing lots of different parts. I love the variety of playing different characters.
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.
Clive Owen
When there's an idiot driving crazily in front of you, that can wind the best of you up.
Clive Owen
It's important to me that everyone is treated with respect.
Clive Owen
Very often on films, even without a producer credit, I'll be involved, very early on. I want to be there as the thing is taking shape.
Clive Owen
I have a problem with a lot of men's fragrances because they are very strong. Somebody somewhere thinks that masculine means powerful smells, and I find them overbearing and not very pleasant.
Clive Owen
Acting is all about likability.
Clive Owen
I'm sort of one of those weird actors who whenever I do a play, I think, Oh, we should film this. As opposed to have to belt it out of ourselves in a theater auditorium.
Clive Owen
I'd like to do a film which is funny.
Clive Owen
I never really look at life and worry about missed opportunities.
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
A lot of the projects that I do, I like to be involved with earlier. I just feel that, certainly from an acting point of view, it's easier to do my job, if I'm included in what the intentions are, for why people are doing what they're doing, especially with a director.
Clive Owen
Death frees the beast.
