Mads Dittman Mikkelsen Quotes

• I try not to carry any character back home because that would be extremely frustrating for my family. It stays with you, of course, if for 14 hours a day you’re being accused of something you haven’t done and you can’t get your frustration out anywhere. Whereas with a character like Hannibal, he’s probably the happiest man I’ve ever played, even though he’s doing horrendous things. He’s a happy duckling and life is beautiful.
• [his version of Hannibal Lecter] He loves fine art. He is a three-piece- suit man. He loves classical music. He hates everything that is banal. And he loves the beauty of everything that’s refined. He’s trying to make friends with people, so I can’t play that one card of being evil. It has to be hidden.
• I ask a million questions, and I insist on having answers. I think that is what we have to do. I have to know what the director wants. Some are very much in their head, and I need to force it out of them. I just can’t play around for eight hours and see if something happens.
• I take my work enormously seriously. When I do something it has to feel right. Everything has to be right. I’m not ambitious about my career, but I am ambitious with each job. I can be fairly annoying to work with. No compromises. Let’s put it this way: compromises are from hell.
• On his 1937 Danish Nimbus motorcycle: It is like something Steve McQueen would ride. I love the freedom and it doesn’t go quite as fast as a modern bike, which pleases my wife.
• I’m a beer man. I tried to drink whiskey and Scotch but I don’t get it. It smells like a girl who didn’t shower and just splashed a lot of perfume on.
• On the fact that he is voted “the sexiest man in Denmark” over and over: “I’d rather be voted ‘the sexiest man in Denmark’ than ‘the ugliest man in Denmark’.”
