From Alex Witchel's Sunday brunch discussion-ready piece on Rupert Everett in the Times Magazine:
"It would be nice to see him work more, though he wasn’t convinced of
this. “You shouldn’t work much more than every six months or so as an
actor, he said. 
“People get very bored of you — all those people who do
four movies a year. Barbra Streisand didn’t do four movies a year. Dustin Hoffman
never did four movies a year until recently. They kept amongst
themselves. I think you should do that slightly. You should be able to
putter off and have a breakdown or a heroin addiction, whatever it is,
your particular problem of choice. That’s what makes you an interesting
actor, anyway. We’re more interesting if we are dysfunctional.”"
