| Tim Roth
Acting is a short, sharp shock, and then I have a two-year break to do some directing. I mean you have to stop-OK, be serious about it-so I've put the kids through school. British acting schools are diferent. There is a cultural difference. Americans, Africans, British, I'm not sure we share a language. Doing comedy for film is always a challenge because you are in the hands of the editor after the fact. I am hoping I can do some more soon, I enjoy doing comedy. I believe there is also a Tim Roth Monastery. I didn't want to make soundtrack film or a gun movie. These are the reasons I wanted to make a movie. I wanted to make an adult movie. I don't care to analyze acting. On the other hand there is a fascination because distributors are putting out British films. You get films here with great performances you'll never see again. Why compare. We should go after the businessmen. I love Charleston. That was one of the best experiences I have had making a film. I'm back to Carolina to do my next film. I miss my family, and I like being a tourist when I go back. I think every director has a different take, some are good, some are bad. The directors you get on best with sometimes don't make the best films, so who's to say who is right. I'm a workaholic. I'm sick of very white teeth and lots of gymnasium practice. I'm bored, you know, send in the next one. I wanted a real man that I could believe was my brother, my father, you know, my next-door neighbor-a real person. Ilike ideas writers have that I might not have written. Writers are there for a reason... to write for me. My mentors were my editiors. You come from location work with a million people and questions, and you get into the editing room, and its two people. People remember villians. Sometimes in an action movie or sci-fi movie, being a villain is actually kind of interesting. The first role I ever did... I played a Nazi skinhead. There is less pressure as a character actor. It generally means that you will be acting for all of your life, which is my intention. It is not my intention to just be a rich and famous person, that would be pretty boring. Well, I think first it was rare for me to do anything that had any kind of a romantic note to it. You read a script and its based on Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, and it goes right in the bin. |
