More quotes by Guy Pearce
Ultimately the most challenging thing, always, is to just be convincing
Guy Pearce
I don't enjoy movies in 3D. I find I can't engage with the story as well.
Guy Pearce
Choosing work is an interesting thing. It's a balance between what's available and what you've always got in the back of your mind - that awful, strange thing that seems to have to exist in this industry, of what will give you exposure.
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'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 think when people are repressing things, or burying things, that can manifest in all sorts of ways.
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 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
I'll have a different answer tomorrow that I do today.
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
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
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 have a real love of sound and the shape of the sound. 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.
Guy Pearce
Every time you say yes to a film there's a certain percentage of your yes that has to do with the director, a certain percentage to do with the story, a certain percentage with the character, the location, etc.
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
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
I reckon it's more of an external perspective that on some level you really can control and dictate how your career's going to go.
Guy Pearce
I suffer from overheating quite easily.
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
There's a sense of humor within the Australian culture that prevails when one is in a rather difficult situation.
