Ewan McGregor
Don't worry about telling your actor what to do.
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 like to dance, but it's not my weekend activity. I'm not a clubber.

It's not my job to try and alter the director's style - he's in charge, and I'll always give him my trust.

Ewan McGregor
I left halfway through my third year to start Lipstick On Your Collar, which was the first thing I ever did.
Ewan McGregor
UNICEF is doing amazing things here. They're helping these groups of kids to be mine aware, and using drama and workshops to teach children in all of the schools in the area to be aware of mines and what to do if they find one, and if somebody's hurt, not to rush in - all of the essential things that kids need to know.
Ewan McGregor
I think you know, to not open your mind to television is silly because there's so much good work happening on television.
Ewan McGregor
I've played in pipe bands in Scotland, and I've always played guitars and drums and stuff.
Ewan McGregor
I'm not really attracted to action sequences, because my experience is that it's quite a slow process to shoot them, and often we're not involved as actors.
Ewan McGregor
I started watching golf for the first time yesterday. I`m really worried about myself. I was actually enjoying it.
Ewan McGregor
I believe that unless it's a scene where I'm alone, then of course I could do what I want but I think good acting is about what happens between people, not on your face and my face.
Ewan McGregor
There are people who are younger than I who are more uptight than I am. It's not necessarily an age thing. I mean nobody is offering me 20-year old leads any more.
