Andrea Roth Quotes
He's a dream. He's the greatest. We shoot about 14 pages a day, which is maybe seven different scenes, which is a lot for a TV show. And I don't think we ever work over 12 hours. But that's because we don't really rehearse. We don't. We get some notes and maybe Denis changes this bit of writing or that. He's so present. He has a special talent in that he's so truthful. Working with him, you just fly with the material. He's very centred and very generous.
