" When you know what an actor has, you can reach in and arouse it. If you don't know what he has, you don't know what the hell is going on.I did whatever was necessary to get a good performance including so-called Method acting. I made them run around the set, I scolded them, I inspired jealousy in their girlfriends... The director is a desperate beast! ... You don't deal with actors as dolls.
