I've got an age that I do think of myself.

I want to go anywhere and everywhere and explore as much as I can.

After writing a page, Hemingway would let it float to the ground. He never crumpled pages - he believed that if you crumpled them, you'd be insane in a year.
Clive Owen

I just like to keep challenging myself, keep it varied. It's a craft, and I'm constantly trying to learn and get better at it.
Clive Owen
Image

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.

After drama school I did a seven-month tour of Europe performing in 'Romeo and Juliet.' I played Romeo.

Image
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
Image
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.
Clive Owen
Image
I can honestly say I've never chosen a film because where it's shot is convenient.
Clive Owen
Image
I certainly am not a great believer in over-rehearsing between actors, and certainly not doing the dialogue too much.
Clive Owen
Image
There's certainly a huge element of luck in me ending up where I've ended up.
Clive Owen
Image
You see these actresses who have had Botox or something else done, and it takes you out of the film.

I was very keen on playing a victim.
