- Nov 07, 2020
Theatre is how I first encountered art on any level.
- Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The trite answer is that everything is true but none of it happened. It is emotionally true, but the events, the plotting, the narrative, isn't true of my life, though I've experienced most of the emotions experienced by the characters in the play.
- Doing

- Nov 07, 2020
It doesn't really feel like it's got anything to do with me. I mean, I know I wrote it, and all that and invented the characters and made it up, but it's Mike's film, so doing the press and stuff, it feels a little bit inauthentic. I was just one component of it.
- Having

- Nov 07, 2020
I'm constantly having to be vigilant with a depressive tendency, an addictive tendency.
- Married Man

I'm a happily married man and I think to get married you have to be optimistic.
- Golden Globe

- Nov 07, 2020
I'm a Golden Globe nominee, yes. It's very nice. It's a very nice thing, but I kind of think of all the awards I wasn't ever nominated for, for years and things.
- Loved
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I used to go with my parents and loved it, I was in school plays, and I started reading plays before I started reading novels. I'll defend it to the hilt. When theatre is good it is fabulous.
- More

- Nov 07, 2020
I mean when the play was on in New York I was starting to get film offers coming through, and since the film's come out I get offered more than I used to, but it happens incrementally.
- Mistakes
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I like them all - I don't always approve. I see myself as a sort of benevolent uncle to these characters, and I can see why they do what they do; sometimes they make some mistakes, but at heart I think they're decent.
- Pain
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I know it's a film and all of that, and it's a Hollywood film, but it kind of feels like this sometimes, when you're in pain and it hurts, and you're desperate. Or you are about to cross some moral line and it's so seductive and you just do... and all that.
- Power
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
I hoped the dramatic power of the play would rest on that tension between elegant structure - the underlying plan is that you see the first and last meeting of every couple in the play - and inelegant emotion.
- Person
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
But I'm the sort of person who, if certain structures topple, it could all go horribly wrong.
- Own
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
But I think the thing I'm proud of about the film is that there aren't many films - either independent films or mainstream Hollywood films - that are like this; it's of its own times, and it's the film Mike Nichols wanted to make.
