I'd like to own a movie camera - a proper one, with film, not a digital thing. Celluloid has more character.

The Butcher Boy is a very gre...

The Butcher Boy is a very great novel indeed and a very important Irish novel. The ambiguity of that is, he's writing a book about an appalling situation and he does it in a hilarious way.

The worst thing for an actor ...

The worst thing for an actor is a director that gets on your nerves and says things that actually confuse you.

I never watch TV. I know I'm ...

I never watch TV. I know I'm missing so much, aren't I? I'm probably not. I can't stand popular TV. I've got too much to do to watch it. I know that sounds pretentious and pompous, but there you are.

I don't feel ashamed of my wife's political background, and I don't think she should either. I feel that the people who administered the North of Ireland for the last 20 years should be ashamed. There you are.

If you're playing a lead, you're shaping the movie. When you're playing a supporting role, you've got only a moment to make it count.

The End of the Affair is a good movie because it about things, things that really matter. Love, sex, death. Have you ever seen romance?

My kids act all the time and its exactly what I used to do.

I loved movies as a teenager and saw as much American cinema as I could, but I hated the English films of the early 60s and had absolutely no point of identification with them.

We didn't have a television, so I grew up with books. This isn't to suggest I'm an intellectual, but I do read a lot because part of acting is an exploration of literature.

I didn't want to be seen as just a guy on a list. I'm interested in good scripts, scripts that are about something, scripts that move your acting along.

People often refer to my career before The Crying Game as something which led up to that point. But I was very fulfilled in what I was doing.

Stephen Rea 24 quotes

At this moment, when Ireland ...

At this moment, when Ireland seems about to break into something new, we thought it was worth looking back at a time when people seemed to have found a way out of the sectarian division of the country.

Stephen Rea 24 quotes

I've been worked over by the ...

I've been worked over by the English press because there's an assumption that my politics are identical with my wife's, and for that matter that my wife's politics are identical with her politics of 20 years ago.

I have never been to a brothel. I don't think I could go into one.

Stephen Rea 24 quotes

When you're playing the part ...

When you're playing the part of a saxophone or a trumpet player, both of which I have done, it would be nice to be able to play like John Coltrane, but you can't. Your job is to do something else. And I'm not sure what it is, but I don't think I'd be acting Niels Bohr any better if I went and studied physics for five years.

I am afraid of death, scared ...

I am afraid of death, scared by it. I already don't know whether I exist or not. So dying really terrifies me.

I loved movies as a teenager and saw as much American cinema as I could, but I hated the English films of the early '60s and had absolutely no point of identification with them.

I think great art is always ambiguous and can't be pinned down.

I believe some people in this business suffer from fame because they behave in a famous fashion.
