Jim Broadbent

I like reflecting the culture I understand best, spotting the idiosyncrasies of British people and revealing them to an audience in a way that amuses is what I find fun.

I'm not that comfortable with actors receiving honours, partly because I think they ought to go to those who really help others.

When you research someone, you actually get beyond your own preconceptions and become aware of the human being other than the image. You become empathetic and sympathetic in turn.

I think Chelsea Handler is the funniest woman.

They said I couldn't play anything but an English boy. I knew I could. So I went to New York.

I love Hindi films.
