To Benedict Cumberbatch

James is a hero. We have to love him. We have to understand why the
boys love him and will go to the extreme they do with him… But he’s also
a bit of a pompous dick. I like to think this is what makes him
believable. All these characters have flaws because we ALL do.
But it takes confidence and belief, total artistic commitment and an
amazing lack of vanity for a young actor in his first real leading role
to know that he can play this character on the edge of likability and
get away with it. Of course Benedict does.
The ability to play these complications is another matter. He is of
course just a brilliant actor. All the boys were. For me his most
impressive ability, as I have said before, is to be technically
brilliant, while all the while looking as though there is nothing but
gut reaction going on. Watching him physically train to play James (He
dieted, ran the cliffs and swam in the cold sea), and also delve into
the meaning of every line in rehearsals, and then plot the effect of his
illness on his body and mind as it would be in each scene (shot in the
wrong order), while all the while being a joy to be around was
impressive to witness. To see it as one performance in the final cut was
remarkable.
He is rare even amongst the acting breed. If the character
description says handsome: he is. If it says Nasty: he is. Older: he
is… Younger: he is. For this reason I just can’t wait to see what he
will become.
Working with him was a delight. I learned so much. It was so often
easy to see what he was like at ten years old. He’s a giggler, and a
brilliant mimic and, like the other boys, he thought nothing of carrying
kit up the steps from Barafundle Bay, even after having been on camera
all day.

When we cast him in Third Star, his role in Sherlock was yet to
make him the global star he is now. This of course did so well for us in
to one respect and yet his schedule, by the time we released, made it
impossible for him to do enough press. Fame had swept him up. And yet,
when we talk, I am really aware that he is enjoying it by revelling in
the experience of the work far, far more than any of the perks of it.
One evening long after the shoot he called me to ask if he could come to my home to watch Have I Got News For You. “Sure. Why?”
“Because I’m hosting it?”
I sat and watched him watching himself. He was thrilled that he “got
away with it”, that his suit looked nice; that his memory of people
laughing at the right times, on and off script, were real. He was edgy
throughout and so relieved when it was over. It was strange to see him
so effected by it at first– but of course I realised he was having to be
himself. Like the great chameleons of the stage and screen, having to
decide on a version of himself to go on camera was a risky business for
him.
I’m not sure to what extent that was a turning point, but throughout
that period I really felt he had to adjust to life as Benedict
Cumberbatch in some way – and he found his feet. Whatever personal
doubts he had had, that were inaccurate, are far fewer now. Being really
appreciated for what he does best has made him happier in his own skin…
So he can spend the rest of his life enjoying wearing other peoples.

====================================
在她最近的作品Parade's End里有着步调全然的转换，这部剧情连续剧由她和BC主演。
这部BBC的作品改编自ford madox ford的同名爱情三部曲小说。
Rebecca扮演Cumberbatch关系疏远的妻子Sylvia。
“她性格自负，喜欢操纵别人，同时性感又危险，但也很悲惨。”这位女演员告诉我。
“Sylvia身处上流社会顶端，因此我也要把她的口音表现的十分上等阶级。”
“她也很擅长跳舞，所以我也上了一些（舞蹈训练）课。”


bc口音算不算上流社会？呵呵。。。

这是在干嘛。。比无名指是什么意思啊

口音。。还有分上流社会 二流社会。。。。。。。。。。

等你来翻译了哇~~~~~~~~~~~~不然我看不懂
