More quotes by Guy Pearce
I don't enjoy movies in 3D. I find I can't engage with the story as well.
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
I think when people are repressing things, or burying things, that can manifest in all sorts of ways.
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'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 really enjoy a variety of different work, and what I've just done may sometimes determine what I choose to do next.
Guy Pearce
I grew up with such an affinity to cats. I adore the way that they think and operate.
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
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
A movie that gets a PG-13 rating can show someone running down a street killing 27 people. And there are no repercussions.
Guy Pearce
When I go to a movie, I'm always thrilled if I've seen an actor do something and I didn't realize until the end of the movie that that was that person. I love that.
Guy Pearce
I think a lot of actors take on fun roles and then they're lazy or flippant with them. I just can't do that.
Guy Pearce
I am geared towards communicating on a female level.
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
I do like a variety of things so I'm always interested in finding something that I haven't done before, if possible, to whatever degree that sometimes changes, and how much is something now that I wouldn't have a year ago but sort of based on what I've done recently as well.
Guy Pearce
It's really interesting making films and actually seeing the life that they have in the subsequent years and seeing which ones stand up over time and which ones sort of fade away.
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 suffer from overheating quite easily.
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.
