But I did an awful lot of work in Hollywood, and in New York for that matter.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was in an awful lot of trouble in Hollywood.
I worked for a publishing company in Hollywood.
Well, there's different shades of Hollywood, sure. I mean, I'm working in this business but I'm not Hollywood.
A lot of times in Hollywood you're as good as your last job.
The early part of my career was the 1990s, and I was living in New York working as an actor. It was the world I was in. A lot of companies had a great deal of money.
Everybody told me to stay in Hollywood. This was the place they said I could have a big career. What they failed to mention was that no one would quite know what to do with me.
I had a growing career as a model and an actress in London - I had starred opposite Michael Caine and Sidney Poitier in 'The Wilby Conspiracy' - but everyone told me to stay in Hollywood. This was the place, they said, and I could have a big career. What they failed to mention was that no one would quite know what to do with me.
I moved to New York and couldn't get a job as an actor. And waited tables for so long.
I never really worked in Hollywood. Some American producers came to Europe to shoot films with me, so it's a different situation... It was not my aim.
I wasn't making any money, but I didn't feel unsuccessful because of that. You can do that in New York but not in Hollywood. In Hollywood, it is how much money you make.
