"There are no small parts, only small actors."

Do you agree with this statement?

It's the pictures that got small.

And YES, I believe in that statement. I posted under the thread, "What was your smallest/largest part?"

Absolutely agree - people who turn down work because the role is too small are just deluding themselves.

Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

yes I agree, and yes I once turned down a small part because I was full of myself. I was a fool to do so.

I nearly turned down a role after flicking through the script and seeing that the character had no lines. The director informed me that the part was in fact the lead role of a mute who was in every scene.
