Patrick Marber Quotes
A couple of flop plays, a death in the family, and it could all collapse. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Always when I directed the play, I was always trying to cast people not who were necessarily like the characters, but people who I felt had the essential component that the character had, some kind of soul for it. - Patrick Marber Quotes
But I think the thing Im proud of about the film is that there arent many films - either independent films or mainstream Hollywood films - that are like this; its of its own times, and its the film Mike Nichols wanted to make. - Patrick Marber Quotes
But Im the sort of person who, if certain structures topple, it could all go horribly wrong. - Patrick Marber Quotes
I hoped the dramatic power of the play would rest on that tension between elegant structure - the underlying plan is that you see the first and last meeting of every couple in the play - and inelegant emotion. - Patrick Marber Quotes
I know its a film and all of that, and its a Hollywood film, but it kind of feels like this sometimes, when youre in pain and it hurts, and youre desperate. Or you are about to cross some moral line and its so seductive and you just do... and all that. - Patrick Marber Quotes
I like them all - I dont always approve. I see myself as a sort of benevolent uncle to these characters, and I can see why they do what they do; sometimes they make some mistakes, but at heart I think theyre decent. - Patrick Marber Quotes
I mean when the play was on in New York I was starting to get film offers coming through, and since the films come out I get offered more than I used to, but it happens incrementally. - Patrick Marber Quotes
I used to go with my parents and loved it, I was in school plays, and I started reading plays before I started reading novels. Ill defend it to the hilt. When theatre is good it is fabulous. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Id really like to write a play. I miss the theatre and Ive got to get off my arse and write a play; thats really what Ive got to do. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Im a Golden Globe nominee, yes. Its very nice. Its a very nice thing, but I kind of think of all the awards I wasnt ever nominated for, for years and things. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Im a happily married man and I think to get married you have to be optimistic. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Im constantly having to be vigilant with a depressive tendency, an addictive tendency. - Patrick Marber Quotes
It doesnt really feel like its got anything to do with me. I mean, I know I wrote it, and all that and invented the characters and made it up, but its Mikes film, so doing the press and stuff, it feels a little bit inauthentic. I was just one component of it. - Patrick Marber Quotes
It just sort of slowly... you notice more people are calling but it doesnt feel like a big shock. Its very nice but its not shocking. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Its one of the reasons I dont do drugs. One sniff and Id go all the way. - Patrick Marber Quotes
The trite answer is that everything is true but none of it happened. It is emotionally true, but the events, the plotting, the narrative, isnt true of my life, though Ive experienced most of the emotions experienced by the characters in the play. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Theatre is how I first encountered art on any level. - Patrick Marber Quotes
Well, I never know how much an actor puts of themselves in, and how much theyre drawing on personal experience, and I wouldnt like to pry. - Patrick Marber Quotes
