Daniel Day-Lewis Announces Retirement
Several times before, the star has left the industry for protracted periods, including, for example, an apprenticeship in shoemaking that he undertook in Florence in the late 1990s. “My life as it is away from the movie set is the kind of life that I also indulge in my sort of insatiable glee in the manner that I do when I am working,” he stated in 2008 to the Observer. “It is indeed a very progressive outlook I must say, which makes me pause from the work for a while. I have always found it reasonable that such ‘cultivation’ should support the work that I do.”
