'La vida no para a los 35 años'
Charles Dance opened the International Festival of Music and Dance in Granada with a narrated version of the 'Egmont' by Beethoven and Goethe

He has the blue and look sharp there. Of those that do not leave you breathe. He is Charles Dance (Redditch, England, 1948), better known in our country lately as Tywin Lannister, the patriarch of a family of psychopaths who heads the top ten of evil in the HBO series 'Game of Thrones'.

The environment in which we receive has something of 'King's Landing: the Alhambra Palace Hotel' with its neo-Arab taste of the early twentieth century, and views of the city of Granada are the first thing that has seen just down the plane.

He never has stepped on the Moorish palace nor tread for now (when you are reading these lines, it will already be back to London); only Charles V, where last night inaugurated the 64th edition of the International Festival of Music and Dance with a narrated version of Egmont by Beethoven and Goethe, accompanying the Orchester Wiener Akademie and soprano Bernarda Bobro.

He acknowledged that he had not heard of the work or music before facing this challenge that is a second luxury option, as it was announced that the narrator would be John Malkovich (resigned a few days ago due to scheduling). What I knew Charles Dance was the long history of the Granada festival and therefore, apart from the experience of acting in the environment of Renaissance palace, accepted the invitation.

"This is the best show with orchestra in which I participated as a storyteller ever. It's amazing," he says. It is a music lover and that is precisely the main difficulty facing it: "If you love music, it is very difficult not to be thrilling for her and that's against what I have to fight," he said in an interview with the world.

Pause speaks English and diction of an actor from the Royal Shakespeare Company. He was in the mid-70s, before starting to catch on camera. In addition to Game of Thrones, among her biggest success on the small screen is the jewel in the crown, a series of the 80s, when television had not yet lost its innocence. So romantic hero was ... nothing a Lannister can not overcome with time.

"I'm a victim of the British educational system," he says calmly. "My knowledge of Spain it is limited only know Madrid and Barcelona and now I'm in Granada, but I have to go back to London tomorrow," he laments.

Flamenco lover ("It is the greatest art there," he says), has its little story of love with our country: "When I was a teenager, there was a very famous song by Bob Dylan Boots of Spanish Leather was called, so the first time I came to Madrid wanted to have that pair of boots. I recommended a small shop next to the Plaza Mayor and there I took the measures. Six weeks later, he arrived in England a big box with the prettiest boots of the world. That was 25 years ago and still have them. They have been the best I've ever had. The have repaired three times, but I think that can be repaired again. So I need a new pair of boots of Spanish leather. Now I have a reason to return to Madrid ".

"The story of Count Egmont and Beethoven are completely new to me explains. I went to Youtube, I heard the overture and was impressed, it's fantastic," he says. "I think the translation has done as Christopher Hampton's story adds great features exactly what happened."

And what happened is that Lamoral Egmont (1522-1568), general, statesman and Knight of the Order of the Golden Fleece, lost the favor of Fernando Alvarez de Toledo, third Duke of Alba. He was a cousin of King Philip II, but that did not save him from the clutches of the Duke, who arrested him after the iconoclastic excesses of Antwerp (1566) and ordered his beheading by the Count de Horn on the main square in Brussels, charged with treason. Goethe wrote the play in 1788 and Beethoven music between 1809 and 1810.

"To be the narrator of this story is a great experience for an actor, I would be crazy if I had said no to me, being on stage with 60 musicians is like having an orgasm. It is a chill down my spine" says Dance.

With 40 years he dedicated to the performance but is aware that Tywin Lannister is now, even though the disappearance of his character last season of Game of Thrones has already been replaced by another evil heartless. "It's the nature of business," he says "The actors are like whores;.. Sometimes do a job for a director other by an actor, others for a place, but fame goes as quickly as it arrives Sometimes you're up and other down, "he reflects.

After doing wrong in films like 'The Golden Boy', Eddie Murphy or 'Alien 3', Charles Dance who is also a writer and independent filmmaker admits that he likes to "make films about people; no blockbusters or special effects. Next year I will make a film about the love story of a grandmother and a grandfather. Life does not stop 35, it is just as easy to fall in love at 60, but people do not talk about it. "

with Vincent Regan
director of Strike back Michael Bassett:
he was also happy to have the chance to work with acting greats Dance ("Game of Thrones") and Eamonn Walker
"I got to put Eamonn Walker and Charles Dance together and they're fantastic," he said. "[Watching] two heavyweight actors doing their thing, which is a real privilege."
I signed up for scripts, which ended up getting changed. I thought I was doing a jungle adventure, which is what I really wanted to do. They got changed and ended up working into a different storyline, but it turned out that I get to work with Charles Dance, who is the principle baddie for the season. He's brilliant.
He’s so scary in this.
Charles is brilliant because he brings gravitas and charisma and power to whatever you give him to say. If you give him good stuff to say as well then he's really good. And of course he's Tywin Lannister in “Game of Thrones,” so to have that guy, you know? The first time I met Charles we had dinner and we talked about “Last Action Hero” and “Golden Child” and all those, the movies from the 80s when he was really doing stuff—“Alien 3.” For me it was an opportunity to work with an actor I wanted to work with for a long time. So Charlie was terrific.
