Damian Lewis: ‘Someone put flowers at my feet and I realised it was my stalker’

The actor on bloodcurdling stage experiences, back yard cricket and the best advice he’s ever received

The Guardian

I was underwhelmed by Elaine May's film "Mikey and Nicky", though it's something of a cult favourite, so it took me a while to return to her work. I'm glad I did:

"A New Leaf" and "The Heartbreak Kid" are comedy gems, somehow both goofy and darkish, and filled with great performances – by Walter Matthau, May herself, Jeannie Berlin (May's daughter), Charles Grodin...

Well worth seeking out if you haven't seen them.
