challenged changed constantly dench maggie roles smith terms women
There is more for women in terms of character roles now. Judi Dench and Maggie Smith have constantly changed over the years and challenged themselves with different roles. That's impressive.
believe roles cracks
You can tell when someone is putting on a role. If someone really believes in what theyre saying, its quite hard to find cracks.
art love
I love art, but not in a cliched, luvvie way.
If a role has been too one-dimensional, I have turned it down.
both dad love mom
I love my real mom and dad; I love them both equally.
deal good original
'Fright Night' I can just about deal with. Because the original is such a 1980s extravaganza. Which is a good thing. Obviously. But something like 'The Others' or anything psychological: I'm no good with that. I don't like it when there's space for me to use my imagination.
business chatting
The business is so international now; you'll be working on an American film, and you'll start chatting to someone, and it's like: 'Oh, you're English, too.'
sincere
Seriously, I don't think there's any right way to do anything apart from if you're just being you; then it's a sincere situation.
huge
If I'm really honest, I'm not a huge fan of scary films.
type
I do think 'All Is by My Side' is the type of film I'm the most happiest.
good male
I'd say a good couple of my closest male friends are directors.
I still try to be a feminist in some tiny way.
generally great
I generally try and have great days, because I feel very lucky to be doing what I'm doing.
argue awkward director felt force loved playing relevant
With 'That Awkward Moment', you could argue I'm just playing the girlfriend of Zac Efron, but the director was such a creative force and let me make her my own. I loved being part of something that felt so relevant and fresh.
