The Fun of Walken - by TPO


Christopher Walken


Christopher Walken
(1943 - )
In his own words ...

On his dancing -

... No, but way before that, I`ve been doing little dances in movies for years. Yeah, that was an amazing chance. You know, at my age to be able to do a music dance video, very unusual.
----------------

On why he hates to not be working -

When I don`t have any work sometimes, a kind of thing sets in where my mind shuts down. It`s almost like hibernation. It`s not that I`m unhappy, but I`m not thinking anything. Then I`ll go and watch television. And after an hour or two, I`ll think, `You`re just sitting there watching television and it`s not even interesting.` And there`s nothing to do. Life becomes meaningless.
----------------

On Pulp Fiction (1994) -

I put aside an hour every day to go over that monologue again and again for months, and every time I got to the end of it, I would crack up.
----------------

On his looks -

My hair was famous before I was....
People always comment about my hair. It is unusual for a man my age to have so much.
----------------

On what would be great for actors to have -

.... I remember that. I was talking to ... and I said how great it would be if actors had a tail because I have animals and a tail is so expressive. On a cat you can tell everything. You can tell if they`re annoyed. You can tell whether they`re scared.
