More quotes by Guy Pearce
Ultimately the most challenging thing, always, is to just be convincing
Guy Pearce
Working on a studio picture, I can't help but be aware of all the political stuff that's going on. I have to work to be able to survive, in a sense.
Guy Pearce
Australia's not so bad with me, really, people are pretty cool with me at home, but in England it feels a little bit scary.
Guy Pearce
There's many more films being made in America than there are in Australia. You make four hundred and fifty films a year, we make twenty-five.
Guy Pearce
I just can't talk about things before I do them, because just for me... I give energy away before I've put energy into the job.
Guy Pearce
I grew up with such an affinity to cats. I adore the way that they think and operate.
Guy Pearce
I used to work out in the gym a lot when I was younger. I was a competition body builder when I was 16 or something crazy like that for a short period of time. So, the gym is quite familiar and I know what I'm doing there.
Guy Pearce
Memory isn't the facts, it's just a record you keep to yourself. With the facts, memory is useless.
Guy Pearce
I feel I do my best work when it's all there on the page, and I feel that the character is very vivid as I read the script and I'm not having to create stuff and trying to cobble together something. If I have to do that, then I don't entirely trust what I'm doing.
Guy Pearce
I'm a musician, and I'm fascinated with the effects of sound, and tone, and pitch and melody and all that sort of stuff. It's the first thing I have to solidify whenever...I get into a character. The first thing I need to get sorted out before I can then move forward, before I can feel any confidence whatsoever, is the voice.
Guy Pearce
You never really know what the director has got in his mind as far as the scene visually and art direction wise, etc. Even if you do, sometimes there's a side of things that don't necessarily gel the way people intend. So there a bit of a mystical entity, film.
Guy Pearce
The majority of people who join law enforcement are doing it for good, moral reasons, but then there are the few who get through, where you go, 'Whoa, hold on a second. What's this guy doing here?'
Guy Pearce
I think that you can say something in one line with a look that you might need three lines on a page for normally.
Guy Pearce
If you look at the films that I've done generally, you would probably get an idea of what I'm most interested in, and if ever I do something unusual like a science fiction film or an action film or a comedy or something, then that to me feels like a step to the side to do something different.
Guy Pearce
I'll generally write out every scene that's in the film on a couple of pieces of paper, just with a little one-line. And then I can scan it a bit and go, 'This first third of the film, generally, I'm kind of calm.' Then I might do something on one piece of paper that just relates to the energy of the character.
Guy Pearce
A lot of action characters are a little bit too serious as well. They take themselves a bit too seriously, which I don't find particularly interesting, whereas I like the fact that there was at least some humor in this because really it's a piece of entertainment.
Guy Pearce
I can be completely indulgent and spend as many hours and days or weeks as I like on one thing. Writing music and sitting in my studio, just pottering with ideas, it's a lot more personal and creative for me, I don't feel restricted.
Guy Pearce
A lot of people are going to hate me for saying this, but one of my least favorite kinds of music, or the kind of music that I feel I've so got out of my system, is musicals music.
Guy Pearce
Just because there are things I don't remember, doesn't mean my actions are meaningless. The whole world doesn't just disappear when you close your eyes, does it?
Guy Pearce
English is no problem for me because I am actually English. My whole family are English I was brought up listening to various forms of the English accent.
