Hugh Dancy. Actor at Play

An actor who always remains under the radar in hollywood, but nonetheless unleashes quailty films with smart acting abilitys...Is featured in the new issue of "Black Book". He portrays the likes of James Dean, Oscar Wilde,Jackson Poolock, and Sid Vicious!

Here are some wonderous quotes from the Chic and intelligent Mister Dancy.

On Sex Pistols’ Sid Vicious,“He had a wild, self-destructive bent,” says Dancy, “and I guess there’s something rebellious about that. But to be a real rebel, you must have a clear vision of not only what you don’t like, but also what you want to replace it with. It’s about more than just cutting yourself with a razor.”

"Dancy, who graduated from the University of Oxford with a degree in English literature, aligned himself most closely with the late-Victorian era writer Oscar Wilde. “I think Wilde did something remarkable,” he says, “at least by the standards of his society. He painted his vision of life, not only by being gay, but also through his shockingly new ideas about how we should look at art.

“Lord Byron was also clearly a remarkable man,” he adds, referring to the controversial, flamboyant pioneer of Romanticism. “He clearly didn’t give two shits about what anybody thought of him.”
