And putting them on a piece of paper? no, i don t write and give to the actors because we don t need to. it comes out they know it. and actually, one of the things that always amuses me and is, i think, interesting is that every time i ve ever made a film, after a few days, you hear an electrician or somebody say, i don t understand it. there s no script, but they know the lines. they never dry up, they never forget their lines. and of course, unlike an ordinary film, particularly films where they don t really rehearse properly, most of the time s taken up with people not being able to remember what to say and stuff, or looking for the character, which obviously in the case of my stuff, we ve long since established who and how the character is. your next big influence is not so much a moment, as a whole era. you want to talk about the 60s. you arrived in london from salford in 1960 at the start of that decade. what are your key cultural memories of that moment when you arrived? ....

Implicitly political, rather than overtly political. you once said, i m going to quote you here, i know i return endlessly to the same preoccupations, but i m not always aware of it initially. what are those preoccupations, do you think? well, i mean, if you look at my films and plays, you know, about how we live, relationships, work, responsibility, surviving, secrets and lies, you know, the stuff of living, really. class ? and class, yes. it s funny, it s interesting, i didn t put that instinctively at the top of the list, but fair do s, you know. could you characterise a typical mike leigh film? what sort of films does mike leigh make? no, i couldn t do that and i m not going to try. laughing you ve chosen as your next cultural moment an experience from 1965. you directed the original production ....

Which wasn t directly related to theatre or film was the foundation course at camberwell. but it was there that i had a really seminal experience as an artist. we were all sitting around and had a nude model and everybody was quietly drawing away and i looked around the room, and i thought, what is happening in this room is something that we never experienced for one split second at the royal academy of dramatic art . really creative work is happening. everybody in the room is looking at something that s real and finding an organic, truthful way of expressing it, which we didn t do as student actors. it was all mechanical and superficial and inorganic and, therefore, dull. and that revelation in that moment in the life ....

I used to go to the movies. i used to watch westerns from the earliest age. i remember there were two things that one major thing that i always thought about films was, wouldn t it be great if you could have a film where the characters in the film were like real people, not like actors? and the other thing, which is of far, far less significance or of no importance at all is that watching westerns, you know, because of the nature of the number of friends and a length of film, the wheels on the on a vehicle or a stagecoach would go around backwards. yes. and i used to think, sit there thinking, when i make films, they ll go round the right way . now, that was from a very early age. the first big cultural influence that you ve picked, that you suggest has had a formative effect on your work, is ronald searle illustrator, artist, best known for st trinian s, for creating st trinian s and for the molesworth books, ....
