I've worked with some of the best. (Csokas Marton)
I wasn't sure at first-I didn't want to run around in tights, swinging a sword. (Csokas Marton)
F--- me, I'm sorry. I just wanted to get the f------ phones to work. (Csokas Marton)
The first draft I read - goose bumps twice and tears at the end. (Csokas Marton)
I work between 'action' and 'cut'. My life doesn't carry on after 'cut' in terms of my relationship with the characters. (Csokas Marton)
You give me a script, and I'll be ready in the morning. I've been doing it all my life. My first job was at six. I fully believe in the fact that I carry enough information, life knowledge and skill to turn my hand to whatever it is. However, it's a privilege to do the research. (Csokas Marton)
I am obviously a complicated, messy, psychologically damaged weirdo and that is the fundamental requirement for my job. It's an unfortunate thing that people don't simply understand that and leave me to my padded cell. (Csokas Marton)
I want to do good work, whether that's in the studio system or indie. Pretty soon people will be putting their own movies online. I just want to roll with the wave and do good work. (Csokas Marton)
If I can see my vision as a writer, while I'm acting it out, I'll be going through a different part of the same picture. Same thing as a producer, which is partly hiring people to do your job for you. (Csokas Marton)
The studios know what they know because they ask who they want and what they want. (Csokas Marton)
Whatever art form you're working in, it's crucial to see it clearly, to feel it clearly, and not to worry about the results, or how someone else will see it. (Csokas Marton)
You've gotta stick to your guns. What works is knowing me and having a clear vision of who I believe myself to be-where I'm going and how am I going to get there. (Csokas Marton)
I think it's still hard for me to turn down work if it's really good because for so many years I was so desperate to get a job and couldn't and so it's kind of an anathema for me to turn down work. (Csokas Marton)
It’s completely ridiculous and totally out of our control, ... It’s like, ‘OK, well if it doesn’t work then ultimately you have to claw your way back or not.’ You’ll just kind of fade until another works or doesn’t. I mean. It’s really an insecure bizarre profession. (Csokas Marton)
[Working with Scorsese] was like the honor of my life, ... I'm so busy on stuff that I so believe in that it is hard to stop and smell the roses. But I love to work, I really love to work, so I'm digging it. (Csokas Marton)
I get stimulated by creative people, and by meeting talented people. I like putting things together, and seeing how they work. (Csokas Marton)
I try to do as many stunts as they'll let me do. I think it's important for an audience to feel that the actor's really doing it. (Csokas Marton)
When I received the script for 'The Weather Man,' I thought, 'Oh well, here's a parallel.' Sometimes I choose movies that help me do something positive with a negative emotion. And 'The Weather Man' was an opportunity to take this well of feeling that I had and just funnel it. (Csokas Marton)
I wanted to see how much I could portray, just with voice-over and just the image I present onscreen, ... It's a different kind of acting for me . . . It's like silent-film acting and radio acting, at the same time. (Csokas Marton)
There is stuff that I do where I am just, like, 'Oh man, this is brutal and why did I do that and why did I make that choice and what am I doing?' ... This time I just -- I don't know, it just seemed pretty honest when I saw it. (Csokas Marton)
He's a legend and I respect his work, so I went down and paid my respects when Charlton was on the set. He was nice but I think he lied a little. He said it was an honour to be in a movie with me, but I don't believe it. (Csokas Marton)
