we play a game of a few only news so then I just throw some questions such prepared by the staff most exotic place you've traveled to Morocco we're in Marrakech on was that I filmed I made nine films in Morocco I'm very fond of it if you weren't an actor what would it be military favorite rolled a date sexy beast Oh said it was sexy beast you were so cruel in that yeah but I had a secret to that performance which was he was an abuse child that's why he was what he wasn't what he was like that's why he was but he was an unhealed abused child and I had to play well cut it was a scream that I wanted to be heard and it coincided sometimes your your work your craft and your inner voice coincide and you find you're so pretty to scream something at the top of your voice that otherwise you couldn't the actor or actress you'd most like to work with there's a long list so if I name one or two III I'm guilty of grave omission here the last time you were starstruck Tony Hopkins sitting opposite me at a table in a film about to come out call collide and I had my first scene with with Satori Hopkins and it's like sitting close to a volcano he's German which one do I love him what was it like to be served ah that they do touch you with this yesterday yeah I'll tell you what it's like you know as well as I do that the British find it very difficult to infuse the British find it very difficult to celebrate success openly and vocally very like very different from New York and LA and America where you can be greeted walking a block or two by many people in England if you walk into a restaurant they will mutter behind their menus there's been kingi who being easy I'll have the fish but you know but what balances it and we need this balance is that seeming indifference where suddenly you know the sovereign says no no no no we're not indifferent we've seen what you're up to will night and thank you it's beautiful the most embarrassing moment yet to come pet tease pet peeve what bothers you t-that's not hot enough okay something that always that life step beautiful you know that's my only people something that makes you laugh ah Laurel and Hardy I cry with laughter Lauren Hardy because the comedies innocent we've lost our innocence in comedy it's getting very aggressive and abrasive they were like two wonderful innocent clowns I love them greatest film ever made in your opinion certainly one of the greatest and I think as time goes by we appreciate it more and more is The Wizard of Oz it's remember remarkable remarkable film and next to that for its information for its healing qualities for its comfort for its explanation and for its rage Schindler's List what a movie that would you enjoy doing that work of art I enjoyed there's another scream that I wanted to I wanted that scream to come out the scream of the Holocaust and sudden suddenly you find that you're aligned with your inner self and you're allowed to say never again did you know Liam Neeson was that good I loved working with Liam and the classic scene way where I'm typing and I suddenly realized he's buying them one by one I love that scene and I loved working with Liam best book ever it's uh it's I think the best book I ever read is is it I go back to it which is why I think I love it so much and I still don't fully understand it the language is so dense the intelligence is so compressed and it's translated from the French it's by Albert Camus and it's his collection of essays and thoughts it's called the myth of Sisyphus and I and I I go back to it like and as I get older I read it more I realize ah that's what you you know certain books they change it you read them when you're a certain age you get something out of them you read them later it's a different book yak a different Mariah does it to me uh-huh the actor you most enjoyed working with to date my goodness Wow that's a tricky one I think you know in terms of sheer excitement and and the purity of his craft I think it has to be Tony Hopkins strangest fan encounter that a stalker you did yeah oh man one and flattering or not it was a bit scary because um she I she wrote this long letter to me reminiscing over our lovemaking on the beach hmm quite detailed and and well it was it wasn't me it was did they catch her private detective went round to her very modest home in a very modest English suburb and said she looks perfectly ordinary but they are these people seem perfectly ordinary how many times have we come across a crime scene where they interview the neighbors and they'd be say but it was a really nice guy bought everybody a drink in the pub see these people these people are ordinary no one's or no no exactly watch new episodes of Larry King now Monday Wednesday and Friday on demand on Ora TV and Hulu
