Mr. Cranky:
If you were offered the opportunity to live your life as another film person (actor, director, etc.) who would it be and why?
- Brendan Gleeson:
It's taken too long for me to familiarize myself with my own demons. I don't need or desire anyone else's.
What is the most bizarre experience you've had making a movie?
-
Answering this bloody thing.
What do you wish you could change about yourself and why?
-
Too much self-explanation -- a pathological need to explain myself. I hope you understand what I mean...
If you could work with any person in the film industry, past or present, actor, director or writer, who would it be and why?
-
Meryl Streep. She gets me every time.
You've been hired to remake "Casablanca." Who do you cast in the leads and why?
-
Myself. Myself. Myself. Just because.
Describe something in your career (a role you took, a direction you gave, an edit you made) that you regret.
-
Rien. An actor cannot waste time or experiences once he learns from them. Or retains them. Or uses them.
What one person have you enjoyed working with the most?
-
John Boorman.
Of all the movies you have seen, which one made you the crankiest?
-
(left blank)
What question do reporters and interviewers ask you that, when you come right down to it, is just really none of their goddamned business?
-
"What does your wife do?"
Suddenly the film industry vanishes. What are you doing to make ends meet and do you enjoy it?
-
Make music. Oh yes. Whether others do or not determines my girth.
What question are you just waiting to be asked or What other
question would you like to see included on this sheet?
-
Will you take the lead in "......"?
