Happy Birthday: Scott Wilson

Scott Wilson

Born: March 29, 1942 in Atlanta, Georgia, USA

I am a stickler for always having to know what time it is.

When you arrive to a set and you see the sky all lit up and the sets all lit up, for me it is very exhilarating and it’s a lot of fun. It’s really fun to see that and to be a part of it. It’s just like going to the circus.

I learned very early on just how important it is to work with good people. It’s important to have a good prop department, and a good director of photography. A lot of people don’t understand just how collaborative filmmaking is. Actors often get credit for making a film great, but filmmaking is a total collaboration and everyone should get the credit.

I love getting into the research for the characters that I play. You do all that research and then you just give yourself to it and let go and allow it to take you where it wants to go.
