Denholm Elliott Quotes


Denholm Elliott

I`m often given parts that aren`t as big as they are colorful, but people remember them. When it`s a minor or supporting role, you learn to make the most of what you`re given. I can make two lines seem like `Hamlet`.

I like actors - such as Margaret Rutherford and Peter Lorre - who aren`t afraid to over-act like real people. When I take a job I can always come up with ten different ways of doing the part. But I`ll always choose the flashiest one. You`ve got to dress the window a bit.
