I can handle this sort of thing ... But it is just not a cool thing to do to a little boy. |
I couldn't be happier for her, her family, her pets, everyone, ... Gladiator. |
I didn't want to be a dad under those circumstances. I never wanted to have to have children who would hear the kind of conversations I had to hear my parents having, wondering where the money was going to come from for the next rent. |
I do my bit to improve the world, but I think it's very important to get things done on the quiet, ... I'm sick to death of famous people standing up and using their celebrity to promote a cause. |
I don't make demands. I don't tell you how it should be. I'll give you options, and it's up to you to select or throw 'em away. That should be the headline: If you're insecure, don't call. |
I don't use my celebrity to make a living. I don't do ads for suits in Spain like George Clooney or cigarettes in Japan like Harrison Ford . To me, it is kind of sacrilegious. It's a complete contradiction of the social contract you have with your audience. I mean, Robert De Niro advertising American Express. Gee whiz, it's not the first time he's disappointed me. It's been happening for a while. |
I enjoy the company of cattle. I really enjoy knowing them, running my hand over them. |
I like villains because there's something so attractive about a committed person -- they have a plan, an ideology, no matter how twisted. They're motivated. |
I liked everything I read about Braddock, ... I liked who he was before he was a champion, who he was when he was a champion and who he was afterwards, too. I liked the fact that his otherwise very simple life had this incredible zeitgeist flair in the middle of it and afterwards he just kept working, bringing up his children and loving his wife. For me, it's the story of how one family survived the Depression. Braddock died in 1974 in the same house that he had bought in 1935 with his winnings from the world championship and where he had seen his kids grow up and his grandchildren born. |
I mean that's the plan at this point in time. I think prior to him going to school I think the best thing to do is to make sure that he is wherever I am, |
I never saw Jim as a man who really lived for boxing at all. To me, the story was interesting because of his change of fortune. I thought, 'This is a great story, because it's true. You couldn't make it up.' Braddock had been a very responsible young man when he was doing well as a boxer. He'd saved his money, he hadn't wasted it. He hadn't lived outside his means. He did the thing everybody said to do at the time, which was to invest his money in the stock market. And in October 1929, he lost 85 per cent of his total net worth and was brought to the brink of bankruptcy. Suffice it to say, things turned bad. |
I really feel sorry for people who are, who divide their whole life up into 'things that I like' and 'things that I must do.' You're only here for a short time, mate. Learn to like it. |
I saw him do that to three different trainers, so I brought in somebody that he wouldn't be able to do it to. Nick Powell [who worked with Crowe on Gladiator] is the hardest working stunt guy that I've ever met. |
I work between 'action' and 'cut'. My life doesn't carry on after 'cut' in terms of my relationship with the characters. |
I'd like to buy the club. You're actually talking about rugby league fantasy stuff. |
