Band of Brothers is one of the more emotionally affecting, outstandingly produced war stories in modern TV, made up of a handful of essentially perfect scenes. Airing on HBO in 2001, Band of Brothers is based on the non-fiction book of the same name and details the exploits of “Easy” Company of the 101st Airborne Infantry Division during World War II.

Quotes of the Week June 14: Damian Lewis, Ian McKellen, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and More

Actor vs. Musician 

by Staff | The Stage | June 14, 2023

“As an actor, you are asked to draw on your emotional self, and that can feel very exposing. But it’s not you, it’s the writer of that piece who is speaking directly from themselves. You are an interpreter. With this, there’s no ­characterisation – it is just you. I’ve found myself thinking: ‘Is it more enjoyable to inhabit a character in a parallel reality? Or is it more fun standing on stage as me?’ They are very different. And I don’t have the answer yet.” – Actor Damian Lewis on his debut album as a musician (Telegraph)
