Everyone wants to work in America. Maybe not blockbusters or Terminator, but to have the choice.
To help people in the third world get educated and learn how to read and write is so important. I mean it is such an important human right.
A film can be big or small - I have to just fall in love with it. To connect with the character, the script, and the director. Sometimes they say to you, 'You should do that for your career; it's a big thing, people will go and see it,' but I wouldn't be able to, because my heart wouldn't be in it. I would drive people quite mad.
I don't believe in awards. It's very good for the ego, I suppose.
I'm very scared of water. When you don't see the water... I imagine monsters - stupid things.
I've always felt a bit weird, very shy.
I like characters who have strong facades and then have secrets. They have cracks.
I love fashion from the 1930s and '40s - shoulder pads, high waists, things with structure. That is classy for me. Andrea Riseborough from the Madonna movie 'W.E.' had an amazing wardrobe.
I don't like flirting, and when I love someone, I always give everything, maybe too much. And then you have to work at it all the time. I mean, the first months are always great, but afterwards it becomes hard work. It's not as passionate and crazy.
I've never been very good talking about myself.
I don't wear base, as I don't like to cover up my freckles, but I couldn't live without YSL Touche Eclat for hiding my under-eye circles. I love the smoky-eye look, so I use Dior's 5-Colour Eyeshadow in Night Dust and lashings of mascara. I finish with a dash of bronzer for a healthy glow.
I love Ireland. I feel very at peace there. It's just magical and beautiful.
I'm not really involved with politics... I'm living in my cocoon with my classical music around.
I've always felt like I'm from another planet.
