Peter Mullan : (3) " In Scotland, we’re a colony in more ways than one. So when directors come up to work, there’s a very particular way they want Scotland to look like and to behave like. " - Peter Mullan " In the acting game, you spend a long time fighting against what the director perceives you to be. And half the time the directors don’t know. " - Peter Mullan " Every film I’ve ever worked on, and that includes ‘Braveheart’ and ‘Trainspotting,’ I’ve always witnessed a director having a breakdown. Every director will have a day, without exception, where they just can’t do it anymore, they don’t know what to say to their cameraman, their cast. It’s the sign of real, physical exhaustion.
