Quote
1 Fleming (Ian Fleming) was actually a very brutal man, and a lot of the things he did were awful. So there has to be an element of James Bond to him, too, an element of lightheartedness and charm, that’s what’s fun to watch.
2 I remember, growing up, thinking James Bond was cool. He just drove fast cars and had great gadgets. I’m amazed he’s survived, because in some ways he’s quite an old-fashioned idea. But he lives a life that’s rather alluring.
3 [on filming The Devil’s Double (2011), with co-star Ludivine Sagnier] I think we both see the ridiculous nature of the business, and we can both laugh at it. I think that’s what the key to survival is as an actor. You can never really take yourself too seriously. It’s playing, even when the materials is this dark and this serious and this real.
