Boris Karloff (1887–1969)

Born: November 23, 1887 in Camberwell, London, England, UK
Died: February 2, 1969 (age 81) in Midhurst, Sussex, England, UK

[on his pet hate] Background music in films. I know my films have it too – the heavy, sinister stuff. But I still think background music is an insult to the intelligence of audiences. The mood should be conveyed by the action and not have to be underlined. There was that Hitchcock film Lifeboat (1944) in which three or four people were floating on a boat in the middle of the ocean. But from nowhere at all there came a celestial choir on the soundtrack. It’s so silly.

Born: November 23, 1888 in New York City, New York, USA
Died: September 28, 1964 (age 75) in Los Angeles, California, USA

[on ‘Duck Soup’] It was the only time I can remember that I worried about turning in a bad performance. The trouble was not with the script, the director, or the falls I had to take. The trouble was Adolf Hitler. His speeches were being rebroadcast in America. Somebody had a radio on the set, and twice we suspended shooting to listen to him scream.

Robert Towne

Born: November 23, 1934 in Los Angeles, California, USA

The [American] dream was more “If you can be similar in that way, you can be American and have equal opportunities.” Whereas today it’s, how can I put it? It’s kind of Balkanized: Black pride. Gay pride. White, Anglo-Saxon Protestant pride. All of these things, you know, they’re more polarized, aren’t they? The red and blue states. Christians, that’s the most insidious aspect of it, giving into this great Christian image of America. That’s the most frightening thing of all. Whereas [in the past] they’re trying to find things that unite us, to minimize the differences. Whereas today there’s this belief in empowerment and entitlement by maximizing differences. I’m not so sure that that’s healthy. I don’t mean that it’s not healthy to want to hang onto your culture. But I think it’s unhealthy to set it up against…

When I left drama school, I had very long hair, and I just cut it a year and a half ago. Now [nobody recognizes me] and I have a comfortable anonymity.

Lydia Hearst (20 August 2016 – present)

[on quitting drinking] Ultimately, it’s the best decision I’ve ever made in my life. There’s an economy of energy that you have in your life. You just have to devote it to things that are good for you, for the most part, that’s more constructive than drinking. And one of them doesn’t end in uncontrollable vomiting and crying…The first thing I noticed about sobriety? I lost about 20 pounds within a couple of months. I started getting compliments. This was highly motivating. Years later, and through much therapy, I would come to discover all of the really bad things (as opposed to weight gain) alcoholism caused, like anxiety, paranoia, and perpetual emotional infancy.

Kelly Brook

Born: November 23, 1979 in Rochester, Kent, England, UK

[on stripping off for the stage play “Calender Girls”] The getting naked is the easy bit. I’ll make sure I have to get naked in every contract. [laughs] In Calendar Girls, I’m working with some fantastic women. We cover ourselves with various props, but obviously there are a couple of slips now and then! Danny is cool with it, he came on the first night and he loved it. But he did tell me: “You need to slow down because you talk too quickly”. I was so nervous the first night, so he gave me constructive criticism.

My mum was never strict. I was allowed to go out to clubs underage, watch TV, listen to whatever music I wanted to, and that made me not rebel. I have never touched a drug in my life. Why would I? My…
