Actor Sam Neill diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma
When doctors told him what was wrong, he said his reaction was "pretty phlegmatic", but it made him "take stock of things.""I didn't think I had a book in me, I just thought I'd write some stories. And I found it increasingly engrossing.
"I'm not afraid of dying," he says. "What I don't want to do is to stop living, because I really enjoy living." He blames neck microphones, which he says enable actors to "get away with whispering and mumbling because the neck microphone is going to record everything." There is also clearly no love lost between Neill and the Australian actress Judy Davis. They appeared together in three films including My Brilliant Career and he says she's the only actress who "made it clear I wasn't in her league."
