| | Ben Kingsley "Sexy Beast" Interview, published by Mike Freni |
 | | Ben Kingsleys first appearance in the dark comedy/thriller Sexy Beast, has him enveloped in a character we rarely see him play, a profane, violent, psychopath, who hardly bears any similarity to Mahatma Gandhi, or the equally gentle characters he played in the likes of Schindlers List and Dave. |
 | | In the case of Kingsley and Sexy Beast, he had little time to prepare, as he was involved shooting other films, and had to arrive on set already immersed in the character. |
 | | Im producing and actively developing films, its a wonderful time for me. Kingsley is a self-confessed workaholic, and continues to be driven by a childhood which forbade him to articulate his own desires. |
