While I was in college, I was intrigued by modelling and also won the best model award in my college.
I’ve long been really intrigued with what is the… proper role of faith and religion in public life.
Like many Americans, I’ve always been intrigued by Bill Clinton. I obviously didn’t always agree with him – enjoyed running against his legacy in 2000, when Al Gore was his designated successor, but I don’t have anything negative I would say about Bill Clinton.
I read somewhere that 77 per cent of all the mentally ill live in poverty. Actually, I’m more intrigued by the 23 per cent who are apparently doing quite well for themselves.
I was just so intrigued with good stories from the time I was a little girl. When my parents would take us out to dinner, I would bring a book along. And they were perfectly happy with that.
I was always intrigued when I was growing up, and then in engineering school, with the idea of a perpetual machine. I think of the Wal-Mart culture as that.
I always enjoyed art history because, growing up in California, my exposure was limited, and it was a new experience. To learn the history of art opened up certain things to me, made me see. It intrigued me.
I’m intrigued by fanatics – people who are seduced by the promise, or the illusion, of the absolute.
Audiences have taken a liking for supernatural and fantasy shows. The genre is doing well on the small screen, and I wanted to get into that mould. I have never played a naagin, and such roles have always intrigued me.
I try to create characters that I am fascinated by on some level or intrigued by or can’t stand.
I like films, or some films, and would be intrigued to see my work on screen.
I saw a DJ from Germany called Sven Vath. I saw him in the club, he played for six hours and I was just totally intrigued, because everything he played I’d never heard before and everything he did I’d never seen before. I was so blown away by what he did.
Growing up, I was always enthralled by Ronnie Barker. He made my dad howl with laughter, which always intrigued me, and he had the rare gift of being as good a performer as he was a writer.
By the time I was a teen, I was an expert at scanning people’s faces, always in search of eyes like mine. I devoured glossy magazines, ever mindful of the language we used to talk about beauty. The sections on how to apply makeup intrigued me most precisely because their audience never included me.
When I lived in Ojai, I did community theater, and I was intrigued by acting.
At the time I made ‘Safe,’ I was really intrigued by the whole culture around AIDS, which was turning to people like Louise Hay and these other West Coast New Age thinkers.

You know what I’m intrigued by? Like, space and wormholes and Stephen Hawking’s theories and Richard Dawkins’s theories. That’s what I care about.
People are intrigued by fame, power and wealth and I think Hollywood is the only place where you get all three together.
I’m always going with my visceral reaction when I read a script. I am more drawn to characters who are conflicted, and in developing a character exploration. If it’s a baddie, I’m rarely intrigued, and if it’s a goody two-shoes – too much of a good guy – I’m not, either.
‘Bowling For Columbine’ and ‘Gus Van Sant’s Elephant’ really intrigued me. With ‘Bowling For Columbine’, I think Michael Moore just gave the perfect exploration of both the mass media interpretation of the event and going into the minds of these kids. These were messed-up kids who had hit a point of no return.
Plenty of people are intrigued by their family history. Growing up as the son of West Indian immigrants who moved to London in the 1950s and 60s, I was especially fascinated by anecdotes about the lives of my Guyanese relatives, which seemed a million miles away from Tottenham’s Broadwater Farm estate.
I’m endlessly intrigued by stories, and I love helping someone to formulate his or her story. I can drift off when I’m reading pure abstraction, but the narratives of human lives hold my attention every time.
‘The Naked Civil Servant’ by Quentin Crisp. I was so intrigued by the man, I hunted him down when I moved to New York. My first interview was with him. I filmed our conversation and it got me my first job in television.
I was so intrigued by insects and things that crawled or flew – I could spend hours by myself in a vacant lot.
I had always been intrigued by the emotional aspect of adventure gaming-the fact that people get so personally involved.
I’m really intrigued by those eternal questions of creation and belief and faith. I don’t care who you are, it’s what we all think about. It’s in the back of all our minds.
The thing that intrigued me about ‘Breaking Bad’ from day one was the idea of taking a character and transforming him.
