Paul Whitington: 'Studio flunkies guard them but the bigger the star, the more relaxed they are in interviews'Liam Neeson's incendiary comments during an interview seem all the stranger given their source: ask any movie journalist and they'll tell you Liam doesn't give too many interviews, and doesn't say all that much when he does. They were discussing the character's rage, which Liam said he could understand, then added: "I'll tell you a story - this is true." The stars themselves, though, don't usually care much about all these rules, and the bigger they are, the more relaxed they are. And that's the art of film interviews: getting someone to relax and encouraging them to feel they're just having a chat. You want something interesting, a quote that will entice the reader and maybe cast the actor in a new light.
