Bob Hoskins: My own mum wouldn't call me pretty
The actor Bob Hoskins, once likened to "a testicle on legs" by film critic Pauline Kael, is very much in touch with his feminine side. In fact, it could be the only thing keeping him sane...
"I realised one day that men are emotional cripples. We can’t express ourselves emotionally, we can only do it with anger and humour. Emotional stability and expression comes from women. When they have babies they say “hello, you’re welcome” and they mean it. It is an emotional honesty.
I started my career by becoming a stalker, watching women in the street, the way they greet each other. I thought if I could capture some of that expression, that depth of emotion, it will make me interesting to watch as an actor."
