“All I can do is just do good work. As far as selling tickets is concerned, that's completely out of my hands.” (Edward VIII )
“I would roll up pennies to take the subway to work in Times Square. I was broke, but I was happy.” (Edward VIII )
I work really well with my agent, we have similar tastes and he knows what direction I want to take. (Edward VIII )
Well, I had a few weeks here to work with a dialect coach on an Arkansas accent. You know, it's something that I don't do, any specific research. (Edward VIII )

I find it easier when I'm working because I have more on my plate and I can organize it better than when I'm just free. If I have no calendar, I tend to get much more messed up. (Edward VIII )
Because I work with so many people on the east coast, I get some work done before I get the kids up. (Edward VIII )
It's important to determine which surroundings work best for you, and then build that environment to suit your needs. (Edward VIII )
The summer before last, I was able to work with Rhea Perlman (Danny's wife) on Broadway. (Edward VIII )
Being typecast as Lois made my vanity and narcissism scream. Hadn't people seen my other work? But now my grandkids watch it and think I was Superman's friend, so that's a thrill. (Edward VIII )
I went to work and did a lot of homework about what was wrong with me. (Edward VIII )
Because of the tension and difficulty, I remember trying to do the silliest things when we weren't rolling cameras, anything to lift the spirits. But once on set, it was important to have full concentration. (Edward VIII )
Daniel and I simply expressed what we felt was appropriate for the scene and Dante Spinotti had an innate sense of where to place the camera. And as I remembered, he used a hand-held to get a sense of raw beauty. (Edward VIII )
For the first two weeks of filming, I remember bristling at some of the occurrences on the set, none of which directly involved me. Then I surrendered to the environment, to Michael's method, and became much happier, even though no one knew what to expect. (Edward VIII )
He also didn't like a lock of my hair and said that he couldn't get into the moment without the hair being just right. I quietly knew that he was anxious and that the hairdo wasn't the real issue. But we all let it go and came back to the scene sometime later. (Edward VIII )
He was also very clear that the decision to cast me as Cora was all Michael's. (Edward VIII )
I cannot tell you where my interpretation of Cora began and Michael's ended. I often times felt as if he were in the scenes with us, such was his imprint. So when I said, "I feel like everything I tried to do is there", it is less because of what I did than it is a case of Michael keeping his word. (Edward VIII )
I'm reticent to say much more, but we would like to begin in the coming year. We'd like to shoot through the seasons because of the passage of time. This project is the great love of my life. (Edward VIII )
Some of the imagery was inspired by Wyeth's illustrations. The best of which, I think, is the moment when Magua stands before Chingachgook to accept his death blow. (Edward VIII )
Sometimes I'll turn the channel and there's the movie and I can honestly say that those last few minutes always fascinate me. It's one of the rare instances when image, music, and drama work effectively. (Edward VIII )
The next day at work, I went straight to Daniel and told him so, saying something to the effect that "It was my fault". We told Michael my opinion (and this was unusual), he thought it over, watched dailies (which we were not allowed to see) and came back and said "You're right". (Edward VIII )
The scene was attempted a second time, up on top of the fort, and cameras didn't even roll. Michael, though he wasn't admitting it, wasn't sure how to shoot the scene. (Edward VIII )
Working on the accent helped, enormously. I will tell you that when I brought Michael a correct "British" accent, one that my dialect coach was happy with, he hated it. (Edward VIII )
“A lot of work. A lot of vocal coaching, a lot of instrument training.” (Edward VIII )
“When he had a scene, we would stand like a set away and watch, and we were just cracking up. He would just sit funny. And stand funny. He was just so funny in everything he did.” (Edward VIII )
I like working on stage because there's something very immediate about it, that interaction with an audience where you immediately hear their reaction, or feel them, whether they're with you. (Edward VIII )
