Anthony Hopkins

And he was a dance teacher.

He's Swedish.

And I used to go to these painful classes of movement.

I hated them.

And I'm built like a Welsh rugby scrum, you know, a bit beefy.

And Jett said, Anthony, you have too much extroverted motoric energy and you will become insensitive.

I didn't know what he was talking about, but then I gathered instinctively to develop the other side, which was to pull back, be in the darkness, be in the shade, called remote.

And it's the remote that paid off for me because I had to change my whole psychology to not be that rambunctious rugby player coming on the stage, bumping into people, being ferocious.

Gradually I learned, no, no, pull back, pull back.

There's one acting note that...

It was Gloria Graham, a great movie star.

She was doing a film with Bogart called In a Lonely Place.

And Bogart said to her, stay in the shade.

Don't go to the camera.

Let it come to you.

He saw something in her because she was a little crazy, you know.

He said, let it come to you.

And I think he had that quality as well.

And that's the more magnetic side.

Well, because you're not doing anything.
