Quotes
ADD QUOTES-
Chris: (about a job he would rather forget about) An advert for Pizza Hut. I had just one line, but I'd been on the piss the previous night and I needed 43 takes at it.
-
Chris: (about the film The Boat That Rocked) The ship we use in the film is a rescue ship and it had a morgue on the lower decks. Myself and Rhys Ifans were the first people on board and we decided to play a little joke on the girls. I decided to hide under a sheet in the morgue and hurl myself at them. Incredible that it worked, the man under a sheet joke is so twenties!
-
Chris: (on how he got his first acting gig) I'd started skipping classes at drama school and had been sent up to the principal's office. While I was waiting, a fax came through from a casting director looking for young Irish actors. I nicked the fax, called and ended up booking the job.
