More quotes by Guy Pearce
You do feel kind of nervous about any film you take on.
Guy Pearce
Memory isn't the facts, it's just a record you keep to yourself. With the facts, memory is useless.
Guy Pearce
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 meet these people who are confident all the time. They annoy me. And I wonder if it's because I'm envious or if it's because they're shallow.
Guy Pearce
I don't have many friends. Most of them are gay and I get on much better with women.
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
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
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
I don't believe in God, but the thing I do believe in is that we're all connected.
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
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
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
If it's a great role or a great film, then you're happy to be a part of it.
Guy Pearce
I don't enjoy movies in 3D. I find I can't engage with the story as well.
Guy Pearce
I went through a period where I just wanted to punch everybody. Since then, I've had a lot of therapy and I've figured a lot of things out.
Guy Pearce
Because in Australia we're so inundated with American culture, television, this that and the other, everyone in Australia can do an American accent. It's just second nature.
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.
Guy Pearce
Most of the time when I'm in Australia I'm not really working, it seems. I'm just at home, getting on with renovating my house or writing music or whatever. So I get back to doing all the stuff that I naturally do. Whereas if I'm away working, that's all there is to do, is to concentrate on the work.
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 think that you can say something in one line with a look that you might need three lines on a page for normally.
