“Nic Roeg was the second-unit cameraman on Lawrence of Arabia... He teamed up with his partner, Donald Cammell, and they made this movie about the London East End. But it’s really a movie about the ’60s. It’s really, you know… Mick Jagger and James Fox, and – I’m saying this for myself – a very big Moog synthesizer, and lots of orgies... It’s a gangster movie with philosophy... And so, for Tony and Nic, I’ll take Performance.”
