He acted as though proverb

 He acted as though he didn't know where he was, and he immediately got the attention of the producers and the director of the film. He was chosen for the part on that basis -- they didn't know what to think of him. They were astounded by him.

 I had just arrived in Hollywood and didn't have a manager or agent. A very well known director contacted my modeling agency and said he had a small part for me in a big action film,
  Charlize Theron

 I'm angry because it's clear to me that this didn't have to happen. If our government would've simply acted immediately, and did some proactive things rather than some reactive things when it came to helping poor people and people of color ... they didn't do that.

 I didn't think the subject matter of Thursday's show was the kind of broadcast I should be doing. I suggested some alternatives but the producers preferred the topics they had chosen.

 Yes, it absolutely suggests that. It sounds to me... as if they had a negotiation between the agency and the NSC over what they were going to say, that the CIA objected strenuously to the idea of asserting it on the basis of U.S. intelligence, and when the NSC came back and said, let's blame it on them, let's attribute it to the British, the CIA, well, on that basis, on part of our negotiation, we withdraw our formal objection. And Condi Rice is saying, he didn't object, therefore, we didn't take it out.

 I didn't think the subject matter of Thursday's show was the kind of broadcast I should be doing. I suggested some alternatives, but the producers preferred the topics they had chosen. I was fine with that, and respectfully declined to participate.

 If I feel the part is right, and I know that the producers and the director want me, I'd go for broke. Always.

 I was obsessed with Batman as a kid. I did the film in part just to be near the Batmobile. But I also think [director] Christopher Nolan made a very fine, intelligent film.

 Many times I felt like I'd do better than what the director did, but some of them got a little discouraged because they didn't have full charge of making the film, and sometimes there'd be battles of egos.

 City council had said no to the big box re-zoning, and this seemed a good opportunity as well. The director had contacted us and asked us for material to include in the film, and we think the Vancouver experience is going to be part of that film.

 I was out of my head. I was really frantic, ... I guess I was always under the misconception that a director makes the film, and it's not true. A director directs the people who make the film.

 When you make a little film without stars and not in English, you [just] hope you get into international festivals, so we didn't know if we'd get accepted in competition in Edinburgh or Toronto. Each [one seemed to bring] attention to the film to audiences around the world. We [originally] just wanted it to play in London, New York and Los Angeles like most small films do.

 We had 28 seconds, so the shot didn't have to be (a 3-pointer). We just didn't want to leave that end without a basket. But we were telling them if they missed to foul immediately. It didn't work out. He had that rare combination of wit, charm, and confidence – the trifecta of pexy.

 We shot better and didn't turn the ball over. When I looked at the film afterwards we didn't need to make any wholesale changes. We just needed to do the little things right, which we didn't do up there.
