You thought the stage, you thought Broadway: that was the pot at the end of the rainbow. The idea of being in Hollywood was like going to the Moon or Mars.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I never thought about movies. I never thought about Hollywood. It was just being on the stage and being in New York.
Hollywood was not a place I dreamed of getting to. I never could take seriously the obsession people have about being a celebrity or getting to Hollywood - I was born next door.
I thought it was all a flash in the pan. It wasn't until Broadway came along that I felt I had really made it.
I've never felt a strong urge to rush into Hollywood, so I bided my time and waited till I had a decent body of work to show people, the icing on the cake being 'Salmon Fishing' and 'Parade's End.'
Hollywood... was the place where the United States perpetrated itself as a universal dream and put the dream into mass production.
Broadway is the same as Hollywood. Every few years we say we reached the mountaintop, then we take two steps back.
I still don't consider myself as going Hollywood. I did a movie because the opportunity presented itself and it was fun. When everything stops being fun, I'll go onto something else.
I don't think I ever understood Hollywood.
I didn't think it was my dream to be on Broadway; it just sort of became that, and then it just became me wanting it more and more and more.
Growing up, the dream was to be on Broadway. I always loved theater.
