‘Fine acting always hits an audience with the force and oneness of the well-aimed bomb- one is only aware of the blast or series of blasts at the time- afterwards you can study the devastation or think about how a bomb is made.’

It’s wrong when an actress is treated like a piece of Dresden rather than a professional.
