Ben Kingsley

BEN KINGSLEY

Film Running Wonderful

Arrive Film Lines Special
The many many imponderables come together when a film opens and for all sorts of reasons it may or may not succeed.

The camera does not like acting. The camera is only interested in filming behaviour. So you damn well learn your lines until you know them inside out, while standing on your head!

I think the cinema you like has more to do with silence, and the theater you like has more to do with language.
BEN KINGSLEY

Cinema Silence Thinking
I’m very in love with the fact that the camera is revolted by acting and loves behaviour.
