Paul McGuigan Quotations

He's quite extraordinary at being ordinary. He has this dichotomy about him that's fascinating to watch.

I saw a thing about Josh - he can be quite dark and he does it really well. When people say that, it undercuts any ability you have, so I try not to focus on that.

Those are hard films to make, medieval films. Nobody will put a lot of cash into it, but it needs a lot of money because of sets and costumes and stuff. I really, really wanted to make that film just because I knew it would be a big challenge, and I also knew that I wanted to create a world that was my world and it wasn't a world based on what we all know.

You can only get that cast by either paying for them or having a good script. And we didn't have any cash.

When you get great actors like that turning up and not being paid, then they all come for the right reason. They all come to play and they all come to enjoy the characters.
