Zitat des Tages von Tobias Menzies:
I'm not sure I had the legs for togas.
I suppose that's why we watch dramas: to see the stuff that in real life you'd end up in prison for.
Scripts can be slick and structured, but do they always contain the truth?
I love little theatres because it's very intimate, and you can have a very easy rapport with the audience. Everyone's in the same room.
In general, I am more interested in the darker characters when I watch or read stories.
The success of 'Rome' was in making the history accessible and giving viewers everyman characters through which they can connect to historical figures. It stops the story from being too remote.
I quite like sort of being able to walk down the street with no one noticing.
'Rome' plays on universal human emotions that hopefully people can relate to. Historians are always going to be offended by it.
