The sexiest part of the body is the eyes. That's what I believe.

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.

I don't like it when people are trying too hard. That goes for clothes, for acting, for everything. It's just not good when it seems like you're making too much of an effort.
Clive Owen
Image
It's just lovely to be involved in a movie that does go back to the basics - characters and great writing.
Clive Owen
Image
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.

Very often when you see families it's all perfect and neat, and parenting isn't like that. You do have constant negotiations. Things are ever developing and ever changing, and you constantly have to evaluate how you deal with your kids.

I do wear suits all the time.
Clive Owen
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I was not a very fearful kid, really.
Clive Owen
Image
I treat any scene the same - dialogue, action - you're still creating something in character. It's all acting, fighting.
