Quite often when I'm cast in a movie, I'm asked to bring whatever intelligence is there to the surface. (Allard J)
Being a leading man on a film set under the direction of somebody like Dickie Attenborough is very empowering, and you have to be extremely careful how you use that power. (Allard J)
I think I'm more bonded, emotionally and in a craft sense, to films that tell extraordinary stories about extraordinary destinies. (Allard J)
To be moved is beautiful. We don't go to the cinema to leave in exactly the same state that we were in when we walked in. We buy our ticket, we pay our seven or eight dollars to be moved. That's honestly what we pay for. (Allard J)
The title is the equivalent of when you become a doctor after years of medical school training... I suppose after years of chewing up the furniture and scenery on stage and in films I get to Sir for being a thespian. (Allard J)
The astonishing silences in a Tarkovsky film... can sweep you into screen and... you don't want to end. (Allard J)
To offer to our tribe, as storytellers, narratives which are absent of a dark side is a terrible disservice. I'm just fighting for the right for a film to be stirring and brilliant and illuminating. (Allard J)

I'm on a real roll. Since I left Law and Order, I've made six films. The whole reason I left Law and Order was I wanted to have a life. That show is a huge commitment. (Allard J)
When some people get parts, they feel they can now relax, but for me it was always the opposite. Sometimes before I do a movie or before I act out a scene, I may not sleep well the night before. If I don't know what the scene is about, I might get all worked up. (Allard J)
I've liked most of the films that I've been in and those are the kinds of films I like to see. (Allard J)
The Hulk is the personification of the enemy which lurks under the surface of us all. We have to control that enemy within ourselves, or we can't control the conduct of the world. (Allard J)
