I'm a character actor. Nobody's ever seemed to think of me as a leading man. I'm 6'6''. I've got a big nose. I'm gangly. I've got crooked teeth. That's certainly not Brad Pitt. I'm still around and alive, so if they need older guys, I guess they're thinking of me.

A vital film that needed to be made at this point in history and has been made magnificently.
James Cromwell
I always change my words in everything I do. I make the language fit, because I know the character from the inside out. Often character actors are not in a position to do that, but I do it. I don't change any cue and I never change anybody else's lines, but I make my own words fit my mouth.
James Cromwell
I don't look like a leading man, whatever they look like. It's changing a little.
James Cromwell
When I did 'Babe' I wanted to talk about animal rights without going through some convoluted justifications about using animal products.
James Cromwell
Once a film is shot, the thing that mostly happens is that I go see all the things I would have fixed in my performance and sometimes, very rarely, I see a moment that surprise me and I go, Oh, that's not bad. That was nice.
James Cromwell
Until men learn to celebrate and operate on the feminine aspect of themselves and stop the oppression of women, children, the environment, other species, we don't have a world to live in. It's not a world that anyone chooses to live in.
James Cromwell
We don't need to eat anyone who would run, swim, or fly away if he could.
James Cromwell
