Costumes Quotes - Page 7

• The people of those foreign countries are very, very ignorant. They looked curiously at the costumes we had brought from the wilds of America. They observed that we talked loudly at table sometimes. They noticed that we looked out for expenses and got what we conveniently could out of a franc, and wondered where in the mischief we came from. In Paris they just simply opened their eyes and stared when we spoke to them in French! We never did succeed in making those idiots understand their own language.

• En el círculo árabe hay un papel que vaga sin rumbo en busca de un héroe. Por alguna razón, me parece que este papel nos está llamando: para que nos movamos, adoptemos sus líneas, nos pongamos sus trajes y le demos vida. De hecho, somos los únicos que podemos interpretarlo. El papel consiste en activar las enormes fuerzas latentes en la región que nos rodea para crear una gran potencia que se eleve a un nivel de dignidad y desempeñe un papel positivo en la construcción del futuro de la humanidad.

• No puedes pasarlo mal en Disney World. No está permitido. Tienen cámaras electrónicas de vigilancia ocultas por todas partes, y si te pillan no riéndote con asombro infantil, te encierran dentro de un disfraz que representa a un querido personaje de Disney como Goofy y te hacen pasear bajo el calor de Florida siendo agarrado y saltado por niños violentamente excitados hasta que hayas aprendido la lección.

• I was on holiday recently and I came home to find that one of the papers here had 'bikini'd' me on the beach. I was wearing a grossly unflattering costume and they had published photographs of me taken from behind. I looked dreadful. I went into our local newsagent and bought up every copy.

• Voshak's hair, a pale blond braid, which he bleached, was his trademark. It made him memorable. That's how the slavers operated. They adopted costumes and personas, trying to make themselves larger-than-life and hoping to inspire fear. They counted on that fear. One could fight a man, but nobody could fight a nightmare.

• You can't get at the thing itself, the real nature of the sitter, by stripping away the surface. You can only get beyond the surface by working with the surface. All that you can do is manipulate that surface - gesture, costume, expression - radically and correctly.

• Helena Bonham-Carter and I sat down to talk about [Cinderella movie] and she said, 'I really want to do it but only one thing I insist on and that's wings.' She had to have wings and [costume designer] Sandy Powell didn't want wings to begin with but had to be talked around, but that was fun.

• My first day on the set of 'John Adams', I was just supposed to fly to Virginia for a costume fitting. But the director figured, why not shoot it, too? So they threw me into a dress that didn't fit, gave me lines I hadn't seen, in a dialect I didn't know, and two screaming, arching infants.

• You only get one shot in your life and you might as well push yourself and try things. There's so many interesting aspects of making a movie; the costume department, the set design, the casting itself, the locations. It's a great, great thing to be involved in if you have the headspace for it, and I do. Try anything once.

• Now that I'm on Broadway, it's like NASA engineering with the costumes. I was very grateful for the slightly more high-tech ones in my show, 'Venus in Fur'; our costume designer Anita Yavich is kind of a genius.

• The film is a direct mirror of the director. If your director doesn't know how to dress, there will be an aesthetic of the film that won't come through - whether it's in the costumes if he doesn't know exactly what he wants or the look of the film.

• Cuando eres actor, estás sujeto al diseño de producción, al vestuario, a los directores, a las decisiones de los estudios y de los productores, pero cuando escribes, estás creando tu propio mundo en tu cabeza, poblado de tus pequeños personajes. Nadie se mete en él, al menos al principio, aunque lo hará. Con éste y los otros proyectos en los que estoy trabajando, tendrá que ser regalado, y tendrá que ser propiedad de otra persona.

• In the old days when I first was coming up, you would turn up on set in the morning with your coffee, script, and hangover and you would figure out what you were going to do with the day and how you were going to play the scenes. You would rehearse and then invite the crew in to watch the actors go through the scenes. The actors would go away to makeup and costume and the director and the DP would work out how they were going to cover what the actors had just done.
