Ewan McGregor Quotations | Page 2

I love exploring in a rehearsal room with other actors, scenes and you know, stuff you are scared of.

When you've got a date on your calendar saying that you will be putting this in front of people in four weeks, that will get your nerves good, yeah.

I can't know what I'm going to do before I'm in front of the lens. And I think that sort of makes it exciting.

I believe that unless it's a scene where I'm alone, then of course I could do what I want but I think good acting is about what happens between people, not on your face and my face.

I don't want to make decisions about what I'm going to do before I'm doing it because I base my acting off my partner and off the other people in the scene.

I wanted to make sure that I was making films about the world. So I thought well, I should go and see it. I'm spending a lot of time in - we call them caravans in Britain.

I was spending a lot of time in trailers, you know, on film sets surrounded by film people.

I love film people and actors and I am in the right world because I am one of those people.

I wanted to go and explore the world, I guess. And I suddenly thought well, I'll just do it.

In far Eastern Russia, there's just some towns that time has forgotten. I guess they used to maybe be industrial or something that are now there's just lots of rusty hulks of buildings and a lot of people wandering around, a lot of alcoholism and violence because people have got nothing to do and no work. Yet people were very generous.
