Action scenes are not that different from other scenes.
From Clive Owen
Obviously, I'm attracted to heavier movies.
I feel for those 19-year-olds who get thrust into the limelight that young.
I had to ride a horse once. In 'King Arthur.' I said I could ride, but I had to call for lessons on the day the deal was signed. I started out on this little chunky thing and slowly moved up. It was months of work.
Outside of being home with my family, I prefer a crowd.
I do a lot better if I sit around and think about a character for a couple of months.
I can't remember ever being involved in a fight in a movie where I haven't done most of it.
I treat any scene the same - dialogue, action - you're still creating something in character. It's all acting, fighting.
Good dialogue is very important.
I've done a number of things based on real people or true stories or based on books, and I'm a great believer that you have to be true to the script.
