difficulty good great gregarious love people talking
I'm not very good at talking and being with people and being gregarious and outgoing. I love people, but I have great difficulty doing it.
describe finally good remember saying
I remember my father saying to me once, 'I finally know how to describe you, Charlotte. You're prickly.' And he was right - prickly is a very good description. If I had to be an animal, I'd probably be a porcupine.
good
It's sort of fun. If someone's eyeballing you, it makes you feel good.
good people
I am actually a very unspeaking person. I'm not really good in social situations. People expect me to be more outgoing. I don't know why. They think I have this kind of assurance.
moon people
When people want to see your film, you're over the moon because you've actually made real contact. That's something very special.
careful compliments looks somebody women
We must be very careful when we say that somebody giving you compliments about your looks should be offensive. I think women really should look at why they're being offended by that.
age age-and-aging encounters men ready
There are a lot of men of the same age in the same situation, so there will always be encounters to have as long as you're ready for them.
roles
I don't want to play everything. So I'll seek out roles that I'll say, 'This is edgy. This is fun. This is wicked. This suits me.'
remember
When I see a young girl, I can see why you would be attracted if you were a man. I remember when it was like that for me, too, and it was nice.
For an actor, if you're not doing a job, you can't just practice acting. Your instrument is your whole person.
What I am doing is not acting. I am playing myself.
cinema edge everyday life mothers played project wicked
I've played the wicked mothers; I've played the serial-killer-type mothers now. They have to have an edge on them. They can't just be everyday moms, because I never thought of myself as an everyday person in cinema - I'm an everyday person in real life, like anyone. But not in what I project out there. I want something more exciting.
channel creative feeling painting sensuality
Painting and photography keep the creative channel open, and for an actor, it's to keep alive, it's to keep awake, it's to keep watching, it's to keep feeling, it's to keep enjoying, to keep that sensuality of feeling alive.
basic flattered men style suits
I'm very flattered to be called a style icon! But it's simple, my style; it's just men's suits and shoes. That's the basic premise.
