Patrick Marber quote: "I am waiting for a man to come in here and fuck me sideways..."
I am waiting for a man to come in here and fuck me sideways with a beautiful line like that Patrick Marber
I know it's a film and all of that, and it's a Hollywood film, but it kind of feels like this sometimes, when you're in pain and it hurts, and you're desperate. Or you are about to cross some moral line and it's so seductive and you just do... and all that. Patrick Marber
Patrick Marber quote: "Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her..."
Lying is the most fun a girl can have without taking her clothes off. But it's better if you do. Patrick Marber
Well, you just know, as a writer, I didn't really write one of the five best screenplays of the year. There were lots of brilliant screenplays; I was just one of the lucky ones who got nominated. Patrick Marber
I hoped the dramatic power of the play would rest on that tension between elegant structure - the underlying plan is that you see the first and last meeting of every couple in the play - and inelegant emotion. Patrick Marber
Patrick Marber quote: "What's so great about the truth? Try lying for a change, it's..."
What's so great about the truth? Try lying for a change, it's the currency of the world. Patrick Marber

Always when I directed the play, I was always trying to cast people not who were necessarily like the characters, but people who I felt had the essential component that the character had, some kind of soul for it. Patrick Marber
I like them all - I don't always approve. I see myself as a sort of benevolent uncle to these characters, and I can see why they do what they do; sometimes they make some mistakes, but at heart I think they're decent. Patrick Marber
Patrick Marber quote: "Theatre is how I first encountered art on any level."
Theatre is how I first encountered art on any level. Patrick Marber
Patrick Marber quote: "When I look back I can't believe I was so stupid as to direct..."
When I look back I can't believe I was so stupid as to direct Dealer's Choice. Patrick Marber
It doesn't really feel like it's got anything to do with me. I mean, I know I wrote it, and all that and invented the characters and made it up, but it's Mike's film, so doing the press and stuff, it feels a little bit inauthentic. I was just one component of it. Patrick Marber
Patrick Marber quote: "I think you owe me something for deceiving me so exquisitely."
I think you owe me something for deceiving me so exquisitely. Patrick Marber
