Quote of the Day
How about Steven Seagal, with whom you acted in 1996's The Glimmer Man?
I don't want to damn the guy because everybody's getting damned these days, but I remember we were doing this scene and we did the close-ups, and then the director said, “Steven will not do the offlines with you. Is that OK?” And I said, “Oh, I'm so relieved. That would only be a distraction.”
-- Brian Cox in The Hollywood Reporter. The article is entitled “Brian Cox Unloads on Kevin Spacey, Jeremy Strong and Why the Oscars Are 'Nonsense',” and that's not quite accurate—unless being sympathetic to Spacey and owning up to different acting styles with Strong (and Daniel Day-Lewis) is “unloading.” His lines about Spacey should get more attention, to be honest. But yes, he does unload on Seagal. Beautifully.
