I grew up backstage. Film is a terrific medium but I love the true
collaboration with other people that you get in the theater.
[about working with Laurence Olivier, Gregory Peck, James Mason and the rest of the
star-studded cast of The Boys from Brazil (1978):] Now I know that when you work with good
people it should be easy. They had such an appreciation of what they
were doing as actors. I was watching clips (from the movie) the other
day when the theater was preparing for some publicity, and I realized
that they made me look good because they were so good.
