This middle-budget drama movies are just gone.
Ewan McGregor
It's impossible to put your finger on what that is exactly other than protecting the environment that the actors get to find the scenes and build the scenes and invest in them. I think that's key and that's what I've learned from all the great directors I've worked with.
Ewan McGregor
I would encourage you as a screenwriter to trust your story and don't make notes for the actors or don't make notes for the reader.
Ewan McGregor
My feeling about seeing the world is that its going to change you necessarily, just the very fact of being out there and meeting people from different cultures and different ways of life.
Ewan McGregor
I don't do things lightly, I don't take a job then just phone it in, I've never done that.
Ewan McGregor
