But I've always felt that the less you know about an actor's personal life, the more you can get involved in the story in which he's playing a character.

We habitually engage in meddling with nature. Until this century most of this meddling was good. Witness the preservation of the European countryside. But since then we've smoked it up and littered it and dumped too much in too many waters. I don't think it's our privilege to behave this way. ↗
