A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
演员
Actor
If you are a great dramatic actor then you often don't know if people are enjoying your stuff at all because they are sitting there in silence. But with comedy it's a simple premise. If it's funny, people laugh. If it's not, they don't.
如果你是一个伟大的戏剧演员，那么你经常不知道人们是否喜欢你的东西，因为他们坐在那里沉默。但对于喜剧来说，这是一个简单的前提。如果有趣，人们会笑。如果不是，他们不会。
As you're growing up, it's odd, because directors don't expect you to grow up. They think you'll be young forever, but as an actor, there is an awkward period when you're too young for old or too old for young, and it can be an odd time.
在你成长的过程中，这很奇怪，因为导演不希望你成长。他们认为你会永远年轻，但作为一名演员，有一段尴尬的时期，你太年轻而不能老，或者太老而不能年轻，这段时间可能会很奇怪。
I became an actor, and because I had success as an actor, I became famous. I was acting for quite a while before I got famous; television made me famous. I guess that it's television that is responsible for everybody's desire to be famous.
我成为了一名演员，因为我作为一名演员获得了成功，所以我出名了。在我成名之前，我表演了很长一段时间;电视使我出名。我想是电视让每个人都想出名。
There's one thing better than having a great actor, and that's having a great actor who's never done this kind of role before and is hungry to do it. They're testing themselves every day. They want to get out of their trailer and get to work.
有一件事比有一个伟大的演员更好，那就是有一个伟大的演员从来没有演过这样的角色，并且渴望去演。他们每天都在测试自己。他们想走出拖车，开始工作。
I don't really consider myself to be an actor of any particular style. My aim with every role I undertake is to be truthful and honest in that particular portrayal. I don't have a particular methodology from any one school of thought or training.
我并不认为自己是一个有什么特别风格的演员。我所扮演的每一个角色的目标都是在那个特定的形象中做到真实和诚实。我没有来自任何一个学派或培训的特定方法论。
Once the curtain is raised, the actor is ceases to belong to himself. He belongs to his character, to his author, to his public. He must do the impossible to identify himself with the first, not to betray the second, and not to disappoint the third.
一旦幕启，演员就不再属于他自己。他属于他的性格，属于他的作者，属于他的公众。他必须做一件不可能的事，使自己认同第一个，不背叛第二个，也不让第三个失望。
I'm always looking, as an actor, for activities. I think it's far more interesting to watch what people do than what they say. You always want to watch behavior, because the dialogue as written by our illustrious leaders is great. Eminently playable.
作为一名演员，我总是在寻找活动。我认为观察人们做什么比观察他们说什么有趣得多。你总是想要观察行为，因为我们杰出的领导人所写的对话是伟大的。非常好玩的。
I think actors are getting so much more power these days, but I'm not. I stay very much away from the decisions, the way in which things are orchestrated, what's been changed. I just try to stay completely in the role as the actor and as the character.
我觉得现在的演员越来越有权力了，但我没有。我远离决策，远离事物被安排的方式，远离已经改变的事物。我只是试着完全扮演演员和角色。
That's one of the reasons I wanted to be an actor, to be like them. And there they were at my table, all talking about how nervous they were, about the lines, and so forth. No matter how big you get, you still have the same kinds of anxieties and so forth.
这就是我想成为一名演员的原因之一，像他们一样。他们坐在我的桌旁，都在谈论他们有多紧张，谈论台词，等等。不管你变得多大，你仍然有同样的焦虑等等。
For an actor, you're rejected eight or ten times a day. All you've got to sell is yourself. You're not selling products, they're not turning down a car, they're turning you down. Most people can't handle that. Most people are essentially not set up that way.
作为一个演员，你一天会被拒绝八到十次。你所能推销的只有你自己。你不是在卖产品，他们不是在拒绝一辆车，他们是在拒绝你。大多数人都无法承受。大多数人本质上并不是这样的。
I finally realized that yeah I did want to be an actor and it wasn't out of habit, but I needed to grow up for myself and then kind of re-enter the industry with a sound understanding of what my sensibilities and my values are as a relatively formed human being.
我终于意识到,是的,我想成为一个演员,这不是出于习惯,但是我需要为自己长大,然后重新进入的行业,良好的理解我的感情和我的价值观作为一个相对形成了人类。
In the courtroom, it's where a lawyer really becomes an actor. There's a very fine line between delivering a monologue in a play and delivering a monologue to a jury. I've always felt that way - I've been in a lot of courtrooms. The best lawyers are really theatrical.
在法庭上，律师真正成为演员的地方。在戏剧中表演独白和在陪审团面前表演独白之间有一条非常微妙的界线。我一直有这样的感觉——我去过很多法庭。最好的律师真会演戏。
