More quotes by 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
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
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
I packed coffee once when I lived in Australia, and I just remember going around every day with coffee up my nose and in my ears.
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
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
I think I'm much less self confident today. I actually went through a quite painful period because of that thinking that I was completely hopeless. But I think that's something that we all go through at various times of our lives and it was quite a sustained thing with me.
Hugo Weaving
Across the board, Australian films need to have a lot more money spent on selling them.
Hugo Weaving
As an actor, to play someone who's at war with himself, that's so interesting.
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
The great thing about stage is that you have a live audience.
Hugo Weaving
To me acting originally became an extension of game playing.
Hugo Weaving
When you're a kid you have this sense of wonder and wholeness and a strong sense of your own identity.
Hugo Weaving
I do feel like I'm not entirely an insider.
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
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 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
I'm so used to Australian films not getting a release outside Australia.
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.
