Thanks :) Nice physique, Sir Ben.

:D Excellent ! It's pretty absurd to call someone "Sir" on a transcript interview... But well... Old british Etiquette maybe :D

Sir Ben on Mister Marty: Parade magazine - June 22, 2008When we spoke, the actor—with memorable roles in Gandhi, Schindler’s List, and Sexy Beast—was in Boston filming for Martin Scorsese. “I love working for him,” said Kingsley. “He’s always showing us black-and-white films from the ’30s and ’40s. Unfortunately, it’s a lovely day today, very sunny, and Marty wants rain for a scene. The English side of me loves rain, but the Indian side is in love with ultraviolet rays.”

Sir Ben on Señor Leonardo: LA Times - June 22, 2008Kingsley the artisan was happy to name some of the many actors who inspire him. He called Anthony Hopkins "a Celtic wizard," Téa Leoni (whom he worked with on 2007's "You Kill Me") "the Katharine Hepburn of her generation" and said "Shutter Island" star Leonardo DiCaprio is "the perfect balance of discipline and recklessness." "Controlled acting is very boring," he said. "But that letting go, even if the audience don't know that's what they're seeing, actually they do love it. Because it's awakened something in them that's reckless. And limitless. And that's why we go to cinema."

Thanks for sharing those, arnz!

Thanks Arnzilla. What a very observant statement. Always thought of Kingsley as an intelligent actor and its very interesting to hear his reaction to working with Leo. Now we have just have to wait to see the results of that work.

Arnz Thanks for comments from Kingsley ....hope that Mother Nature eventually gave Marty his desired 'rainy day' :)

I hope the title stays Ashecliffe. I actually like it a lot better. Shutter Island sounds too much like horror flick... there is something mysterious about Ashecliffe and it's kinda Hitchcockian... Hitchcock prefered one word titles for his thrillers.
