A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
演员
Actors
We're one of the forces that causes actors to fasten seat belts before they take off chasing the bad guy in the car... or removes some of the cigarette smoking on television.
我们是促使演员在离开之前系好安全带去追赶车里的坏人的力量之一。或者减少电视上的吸烟。
Somehow I got to be one of five or six actors that the directors would use as guinea pigs at this directing colloquium, where people pay to listen to and watch the directors direct.
不知何去何从，我成了导演们用来做实验品的五六个演员中的一个。
What's really interesting about actors, is that we all have opinions on how people's careers look, but I think you never have any idea of your own, or what other people think of you.
演员真正有趣的地方在于，我们都对人们的职业生涯有自己的看法，但我认为你从来都不了解自己，也不了解别人对你的看法。
People imagine that actors are being offered everything and you are not. So things come in and sometimes there are things that I want and can't get a meeting on, or go to a different actors.
人们想象演员得到了一切，而你却没有。所以事情来了，有时候有些事情我想做，但是不能开个会，或者去找其他演员。
I've worked with a lot of really fine actors, both on stage and on screen. The level of their game lifts me up and brings the level of my game up to theirs. Always. It's like a constant upgrade.
我和很多非常优秀的演员合作过，无论是在舞台上还是银幕上。他们的水平提升了我，也把我的水平提升到了他们的水平。总是这样。这就像一个持续的升级。
I think it's my job to risk looking foolish. One of the things I've learned from the actors I've worked with is you don't get something for nothing. If you don't risk looking foolish, you'll never do anything special.
我觉得我的工作就是冒着看起来很傻的风险。我从与我合作过的演员身上学到的一件事是，你不会白拿东西。如果你不冒着看起来很傻的风险，你永远不会做任何特别的事情。
There's nothing worse - I don't like listening to actors talk about the process, especially when - I mean, for me I've played a lot of guys, dudes, boys in a sense and this was a challenge for me just to play that official character.
没有什么比这更糟糕的了——我不喜欢听演员们谈论这个过程，尤其是当——我的意思是，对我来说，在某种意义上，我扮演过很多男人、男人、男孩，而仅仅扮演那个官方角色对我来说就是一个挑战。
I think all actors have a similar deal. You want some people who understand. Although it looks great - and is great - there are also shoddy moments when you feel really rotten, and when it's going well, you're not allowed to complain.
我想所有演员都有类似的待遇。你需要一些理解你的人。虽然它看起来很棒——而且很棒——但也有一些糟糕的时刻，你会觉得自己真的很糟糕，当一切进展顺利时，你是不允许抱怨的。
The first work of the director is to set a mood so that the actor's work can take place, so that the actor can create. And in order to do that, you have to communicate, communicate with the actors. And direction is about communication on all levels.
导演的第一个工作就是设定一个情绪，让演员的作品能够发生，让演员能够创作。为了做到这一点，你必须与演员交流。方向是关于各个层次的交流。
I love working with male actors, and I think there's a tendency to write really interesting characters that would work solely alongside men where they would be in a man's world and have to deal with that, and it creates a lot of interesting storylines. For me, it's kind of circumstantial, but I definitely enjoy it.
我喜欢和男演员一起工作，我认为有一种趋势，就是写一些非常有趣的角色，这些角色只会和男人一起工作，在男人的世界里，他们必须处理这些问题，这创造了很多有趣的故事情节。对我来说，这是一种环境，但我绝对喜欢它。
