00:00Do you just go from movies to TV to theater?
00:03You're one of those actors that does it all, basically.
00:05Yeah, yeah.
00:06Well, I always I always did a play a year right from the from the get go.
00:10So I'm kind of reluctant to give that up because I love the theater
00:13and it's the actor's medium and stuff.
00:15So, yeah, I'll take what I can get.
00:18It's amazing.
00:19All the things and Hamlet, every actor has.
00:22My favorite line is what did Olivier say?
00:25Like, forget about competition between actors at award shows and things.
00:29Let them all play Hamlet and then pick the best one.
00:31Oh, wow.
00:33I've never heard that.
00:34Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:36Well, what's extraordinary about Hamlet is that it that's why it's
00:38so brilliantly written and why talk about enduring characters.
00:41You can sort of take Hamlet as a
00:45as a vessel and you can pour in the personality
00:48or the instincts of any actor, male, female, whatever.
00:53And in some ways it will still take take flight.
00:55You know, and that's why it's so, so beautiful.
00:58It's incredibly humane and it's
01:01fantastically funny.
01:02Yeah. And people forget that it's really, really, really, really funny.
01:06That was important in Ripley, too. Absolutely.
01:09Yeah, yeah.
01:09You know, it's one of the things Steve and I talked about how witty it is.
01:12Yeah, I do believe that.
01:13And also why Fleabag was so effective was because it was a comedy with soul.
01:18So I do feel like when you get something that particularly something
01:21that's preconceived as that's a great tragedy, that's a sociopath
01:24that you have to, in some ways, find the the opposite.
01:28And yeah, that's something that that's a theme that
01:35arises time and time again.
