Happy Birthday: Paul Greengrass

paulgreengrass.jpgPaul Greengrass

Born: August 13, 1955 in Cheam, Surrey, England, UK

[on his time with British current-affairs TV show ‘World in Action’] A festival of puerile self-importance, intense paranoia, fiddled expenses and brilliant creativity.
By the time I’d done Bloody Sunday (2002) I felt I reached the end of a chapter. I could feel it. I wanted to try something new, something different. Then, to my amazement, “Bloody Sunday” won lots of theatrical prizes, the audience award at Sundance, and then, to my even greater amazement, I had the opportunity to make a film in Hollywood. I mean, you wouldn’t think, looking at my films, oh, there’s a guy who’s going to make films in Hollywood.

Happy Birthday: Sebastian Stan

sebastianstan.jpgSebastian Stan

Born: August 13, 1982 in Constanta, Romania

It was like a huge master class every day in rehearsal with [director] Bob Falls and [actor] Liev Schreiber. I spent the whole time at the table taking notes on everything Liev was saying: Quoting Shakespeare and how [the play “Talk Radio”] was similar to this or that play. I’d come in and be so hyped up and he’d be like, “Listen. It’s all great, but you gotta figure out what you want here and why.” [2007]

Happy Birthday: Cara Delevingne

caradelevingne.jpgCara Delevingne

Born: August 12, 1992 in London, England, UK

I want to fall in love, I think. I’ve never. I know. Everyone I know’s been in love or in relationships now and . . . There’s only ever been . . . there’s been people telling me they love me, but it freaks me out and I just run, run. I think I’m a bad girlfriend.
The energy you give off is the energy you receive. I really think that, so I’m always myself–jumping, dancing, singing around, trying to cheer everybody up.
Kids should speak to each other. They’re horrid to each other online, they bully each other–they should shut up and stop it. The problem with social media is there is too much freedom. It’s too much, too young.

Happy Birthday: Ian McDiarmid

ianmcdiarmid.jpgIan McDiarmid

Born: August 11, 1944 in Carnoustie, Tayside, Scotland, UK

[on digitally replacing Clive Revill in the DVD release of Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back (1980)] George felt that it was just and proper. When he made Empire, we hadn’t met, and he didn’t have a particular idea of who would play the Emperor or how the character would develop. And he had no notion that he would do the backstory – Episodes I, II, and III. So whoever played the Emperor in a mask and added to Revill’s voice wouldn’t seem authentic to the people who are going to watch the entire saga in the right order. It wouldn’t make any sense. Since I was the Emperor [in the other Star Wars films], it felt appropriate that I should be inserted into Empire, and that’s what George did.
