London: Seems like aging is have a very poignant effect on the legendary actor Ian Mckellen, as he recently disclosed that he spent half a year learning his dialogue for 'The Dresser.'
The 76-year-old actor revealed that when he was a young man, people would ask how he remembered his lines and he would think that it's an easy part, but these days he found himself thinking how he was going to remember it, reports the Daily Express.
If six months seems excessive, then the 'X-Men' star once spent eight years preparing for Harold Pinter's Broadway play 'No Man's Land.'
Though he puts his fading memory down to the ageing process but the 'Lord Of The Rings' star said he's still able to keep up.
In an interview, the Guild award winner said that every person has intimations but there are times in life when the memory really does get worse and the mind doesn't work as it should.
