I’ve been making deals all my life.
Send me one hundred francs on our future deals, otherwise I will disappear in a cataclysm.
Everyone deals with grief in their own way.
When I came into the Perry family, it was one of those deals where it was the only family I had. I didn’t have a father figure growing up like that, somebody who genuinely cared about me. Governor Perry taught me how to be a good man.
Everywhere he goes, Trump is bored by working meetings and rude to those who attend them. He can’t make deals or negotiate because he doesn’t know enough about the issues.
I’ve done a lot of deals, and I’m skilled at negotiating, managing personalities, and getting parties to the table.
‘Coriolanus’ deals with the birth of democracy. And that has been fascinating because I’ve been talking about politics so much because of ‘Borgen.’ It’s a nice bridge.
The way we structure our deals is to work closely with the director. It is imperative to work with a studio because the way the film is marketed is crucial.
We need to strike better trade deals, but we need to do it in a way that ensures that we are at the table on these deals.
My company, Cinema Gypsy, produced a podcast, ‘Bronzeville,’ in conjunction with Larenz Tate and his brothers that we’re developing into a television show. It deals with a very tight-knit African-American community in Chicago in 1947 and people who run a numbers wheel.
Freedom always deals with ‘the possible’; this gives freedom its great flexibility, its fascination, and its dangers.
There are a lot of actors who try to get records made and try to make record deals, and everybody goes, ‘Ugh.’ It used to be expected in the entertainment business. I mean look at Sinatra, Bing Crosby. All these guys started out as singers.
TV’s a wonderful medium: this intimate way of observing how a successful family operates and deals with each other.
The future, for us, is not in bold and big deals. It is in selective deals, and I prefer to focus on one accretive target worth around €2 bn. than several deals worth €200 m.
So many of my friends are still trying to get record deals, and I’ve had one for 10 years now, where my only goal is to make the best music I can make. I’ve been very lucky. I have great faith that I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be, and whatever happens is going to be absolutely right for me.
In very general terms ‘Top Of The Lake’ is about good and evil. It’s a deep dark mystery. It also deals with lots of fascinating human relationships, and it’s also about the battle of the sexes.
My interest in self-help began when I was a child in the Seventies. My mum had a book she would consult regularly: ‘Passages’ by Gail Sheehy, which deals with the challenging stages of growing up.

Your political reputation affects how likely allies are to trust you, and what kind of deals they’ll offer at the negotiating table. There’s also some emotional response in there, so factions do bear grudges. Just like the real thing.
I hate any match that isn’t a traditional Tag Team Match or a traditional Singles Match, because anything can happen. It’s truly one of those deals where it’s all about being in the right place at the right time.
You make mistakes, but I don’t have any regrets. I’m the kind of person who takes responsibility for it and deals with it. I learn from everything I do. I work very hard, I have so many things going on in my life. Get to know me and see who I am.
People told me, when I was coming through the ranks, that a mark of a great actor is one who deals with the period of unemployment as well as they deal with the period of employment.
‘Ida’ is about humanity, about guilt and forgiveness. It’s not a film that deals with an issue as such. It’s more universal.
We dominated Survivor – there is no way we would not dominate that, too. I can see it already, us making deals with people. That’s the best part, and with the Race, it would be even more fun because I’ve got a lot of tricks up my sleeve.
Two of the cruelest, most primitive punishments our town deals out to those who fall from favor are the empty mailbox and the silent telephone.
The Chinese go around with lollipops in their pockets. They have aid. They have friendship deals. They build you a Prime Minister’s office or President’s office or Parliament House or Foreign Ministry. For them, trade is an extension of their foreign policy.
I think the only consistent thing is that I like projects that explore different social themes. ‘Our Family Wedding’ is a comedy, but it deals with two different cultures coming together. It’s also about people letting go.
If I’d just been interested in record sales, I would have taken one of the deals I was offered after ‘Soapstar Superstar,’ made a quick covers album and probably had some success for five minutes. I decided that wasn’t for me.
My ‘Dunkirk’ co-star Harry Styles deals with some crazy fan stuff, but he’s a very down-to-earth, lovely, funny guy.
