As far as carrying the American banner, you just do what's right for the kids.
Dennis Farina

Do whatever you're directed to do, and leave the rest of that technical stuff up to the director.
Dennis Farina

I don't know if I have a technique. I'm just trying to remember the words.
Dennis Farina

I don't like to be talked into anything. I don't want to be cajoled.
Dennis Farina

I have a home in Arizona. I go a couple months a year, but basically Chicago is my home.
Dennis Farina

I know people who go back and check themselves, but it drives me crazy. Everybody wants to look in the mirror and see Cary Grant looking back at them, but that's just not the case.
Dennis Farina

I learned a long time ago: You're in the entertainment business. You're not in the reality business. One has absolutely nothing to do with the other.
Dennis Farina

I love England and the historical aspect of it.
Dennis Farina

I read the script and try not to bring anything personal into it. I make notes, talk to the director and we decide what kinds of shades should be in the character.
Dennis Farina

I think all actors are supposed to be character actors.
Dennis Farina

I think first impressions are important when you pick up a script.
Dennis Farina

I wanted to do Buddy Faro as a small budget movie. They said no. So I wanted to do it as a series of recurring TV movies, and they said no. So I agreed to do it as a series.
Dennis Farina

I'd love to do a Western. A real Western like John Ford used to do. There's not too many of them made, so I don't know if I'll ever get to do that. They're awfully hard movies to make.
Dennis Farina

I've tried writing. Two days later I'd go visit it and say, Jesus Christ, who wrote this crap?
Dennis Farina

The British have slang words, as we do, but it was fun.
Dennis Farina

The cast was huge, but I never saw anybody.
Dennis Farina

There's a whole catalogue of actors that never went to acting school.
Dennis Farina

This generation of filmmakers is very good. They're seasoned, for some reason.
Dennis Farina

This is my first experience working in a foreign movie, but the mechanics, I think, are pretty much the same all over; you still have to wait in the trailer.
Dennis Farina

Usually you're in movies with a lot of dissolves and things, but this was kind of quick, more jarring than usual. I thought it would be fun to be in a movie that's unconventional. Then I met Guy and I liked him. I think he's a good man.
