More quotes by Hugo Weaving
If the script grabs me and appeals to me, I'm really very keen to work on it.
Hugo Weaving
In a real fight, there ain't no time and you've got to use your wits. If someone were threatening the life of my child, then I'd be a good fighter. If somebody just wanted to steal my wallet, well, maybe I wouldn't worry about it so much.
Hugo Weaving
I generally find an affinity with a lot of the people I play and I suppose if I didn't feel an affinity for them then they wouldn't be particularly good performances.
Hugo Weaving
There's nothing like being on a massive-budget film where you don't know anything, and there's a million people, and no one's communicating.
Hugo Weaving
As human beings, of course, we're all compromised and complex and contradictory and if a screenplay can express those contradictions within a character and if there's room for me to express them, that's a part I'd love to play, so much more than a character who is heroic and one-dimensional.
Hugo Weaving
I think any role you need to play not so much transforms but I like to think of it as understanding the psychology of another character.
Hugo Weaving
As an actor, to play someone who's at war with himself, that's so interesting.
Hugo Weaving
Film has a tendency to be limiting in some way and it shouldn't be. It's a form that can be explored and changed.
Hugo Weaving
Being in the woods at night is a beautiful thing.
Hugo Weaving
Never send a human to do a machine's job.
Hugo Weaving
I didn't get my licence because I wasn't allowed to. But I haven't had a seizure for a long time so I could, theoretically, get my licence. But I'm now just so used to not driving, I'm scared of what I'd do.
Hugo Weaving
Both my parents are English and I was born in West Africa, and I moved around as a kid, lived in Bristol, lived in Buckinghamshire and Surrey as a kid, and then moved when I was 16.
Hugo Weaving
I used to have two double espressos a day. I gave that up, had headaches for five days but now I'm feeling great.
Hugo Weaving
I kind of like the challenge of jumping into totally different spaces and styles and figuring out how to fit in.
Hugo Weaving
Having agreed to play Elrond, I realized how much had to be worked out about this character: the idea of portraying someone who is immortal, for one thing plus the fact he is noble, wise, powerful, good - and beautiful! I began to think that he was altogether impossible to play!
Hugo Weaving
Film sets are constantly amusing because you really are creating something that is so very surreal, and I kind of like that.
Hugo Weaving
I still, by and large, make low-budget Australian films.
Hugo Weaving
If a film isn't really talking about who we are and what our psychologies are, then we're probably not that interested in it, actually.
Hugo Weaving
It's a real pleasure to go to work when you're in the most extraordinary surroundings, and working with people who are young and interested and creatively keen.
Hugo Weaving
Across the board, Australian films need to have a lot more money spent on selling them.
