As a drama student I got into Thirties and Forties suits.
Gary Oldman
Image
I like celluloid, I like film, I like the way that when a movie is projected it sort of breathes a little in the gate. That's the magic of it to me.
Gary Oldman
Image
I know I'm pretty, but I ain't as pretty as a couple of titties.
Gary Oldman
Image
I was never really that interested in the punk movement. I was a blues guy: I liked Motown, James Brown.

Image
How many movies do you see when you can say this director really knew what film he wanted to make? I can count them on the fingers of one hand.

Growing up in a particular neighborhood, growing up in a working-class family, not having much money, all of those things fire you and can give you an edge, can give you an anger.

What other people think of me is none of my business.

If one could have a wish, or an alternative life, I would've liked to have been John Lennon.

I have three kids who like Harry Potter so I was sort of aware of it. You can't really move from it: it's on buses, in stores, it's everywhere. One of my kids has read the books the other two are too small but they like the movies.

Rather like Batman, I embody the themes of the movie which are the values of family, courage and compassion and a sense of right and wrong, good and bad and justice.
Gary Oldman
Image
We're given a code to live our lives by. We don't always follow it, but it's still there.
Gary Oldman
Image
I don't think Hollywood knows what to do with me. I would imagine that when it comes to romantic comedies, my name would be pretty low down on the list.
Gary Oldman
Image
I don't see a great difference between someone sending a robot or a drone to bomb people and controlling it on a PlayStation from another country. It's thousands of miles away as opposed to someone in an airplane who is thousands of feet away releasing a bomb.
Gary Oldman
Image
I want my weekends off and I want to put my kids to bed. Those are good reasons to want to be in 'Batman 2'.
Gary Oldman
Image
Sometimes directors feel like they have to justify that hat that they are wearing they've got on as a director, and they come in and they tweak and interfere.
Gary Oldman
Image
To be able to do this job in the first place you've got to have a bit of an ego.
Gary Oldman
Image
I don't go to premieres. I don't go to parties. I don't covet the Oscar. I don't want any of that. I don't go out. I just have dinner at home every night with my kids. Being famous, that's a whole other career. And I haven't got any energy for it.
Gary Oldman
Image
So Harry Potter came in and it is nice that I have kids of the right age. I took them to London and they walked around the set and met Harry Potter and that is thrilling.
Gary Oldman
Image
You can play older than yourself. You can play younger than yourself up to a point, and then that just becomes impossible because you carry a weight with you that you can't shift, unless you have very boyish looks.

'Nil By Mouth' was a bit autobiographical, but as I always pointed out at the time, that's not my dad.
