Actually, my favourite roles have been in theatre, but on TV, my faves were Slap Maxwell and Larry Sanders.

Megan Gallagher After 9/11 and the impending actors' strike of a few years ago, roles dried up for everyone. Alfre Woodard After doing so many different roles, if you don't stretch yourself, there's no excitement left. Christine Lahti After I got to Hollywood, I resented that I didn't get a crack at more dramatic roles because I photographed so beautifully. Maureen O'Hara After that, I was offered lots of lesbian roles, but I didn't want them because I'd already played the best there was. Radha Mitchell Age is the first limitation on roles that I've ever had to encounter, and I hit that awhile ago. Jack Nicholson Among my activities was membership in the Boy Scouts; I rose each year through the ranks, eventually achieving the rank of Eagle Scout and undertaking leadership roles in the organization. Frederick Reines An audience is going to be able to find a little bit of Dorothy in themselves and relate to this woman.: roles like Dorothy Day are so rare in Hollywood. Moira Kelly And the first commandment of feminism is: I am woman; thou shalt not tolerate strange gods who assert that women have capabilities or often choose roles that are different from men's. Phyllis Schlafly And then, as the years went on, I just kept moving along, busting into doors and getting roles, until I started to actually believe that what these other people were saying was true. Vincent D'Onofrio As a fiscal conservative, I believe one of the most important roles the federal government can play in assuring that our economy remains strong is to keep our fiscal house in order. Allen Boyd As soon as I became proactive in producing my own stuff, I started getting other roles. Ray Liotta Assuming roles is something that simply won't work for me, since I don't have a style. None at all. Martin Kippenberger At about 40, the roles started slowing down. I started getting offers to play mothers and grandmothers. Kathleen Turner Because I'm not perfect looking, I get to play better roles. Juliette Lewis Because modeling is lucrative, I'm able to save up and be more particular about the acting roles I take. Kathy Ireland Being an actor gives you a chance to play all kinds of roles, very moving and dramatic on one project, silly and girlish on another. That's the most interesting thing out this business, you get to keep reinventing yourself. Sarah Michelle Gellar Between parts I was too old for and roles that were too overwhelming, out of reach then for my voice. I carved out a niche with the Wagnerian repertoire since I am attracted by its theatrical intensity. Placido Domingo But a writer's contribution is literary and a film is not literary. When you take that stuff off the page, and cast the people who are going to fit into those roles, that's what being a director is. Taylor Hackford But at a certain point, and I don't really know... people have asked me this. I don't know exactly what it was that pushed me towards directing, but I think it was a naive notion that if I directed I would be able to play all the roles. A kind of greed. Peter Bogdanovich |
