Everybody can take a good picture. Everybody is interesting. Everyone has an interesting face. Some people are more difficult or more nervous or more tired. When you do a movie, you have action, you're talking, you're moving. You don't see the camera. Taking a picture with a photographer, you don't talk, it's more difficult than in a movie for your body to relax, to be yourself.
In the movie, you're moving, you have personality, you don't have to be great looking.
The celebrity thing's completely crazy. I think I just have to move away or give it up altogether. I couldn't have kids in the situation I'm in now. But I could just do something else. That's probably what's going to happen. I made a decision very recently that I want a life instead.
The whole point for me is to change as much as possible. If I've done one movie, I've done that, move on.
We had the Bennet giggle. It's a high-pitched, screaming, chaotic monkey-like giggle that would get us into it. Joe wanted us to always speak over each other so you got the feeling of people who are so used to each other, they don't even listen anymore. I do think it will make it more accessible.
I'm so embarrassed about anyone going in that room.
(I am) really proud to have been asked to work with such an iconic house as Chanel, and thrilled to follow the extraordinary women who have been associated with it before.
I was terrified of taking on such a well-known character - to the point where I didn't want to do it. But my agent persuaded me and I'm very glad she did.
She really thought what she and Jamie had was love, but it just wasn't meant to be.
I have just seen George Clooney outside and thought that was quite cool.
For me it is a story about growing up, making mistakes and falling in love and I think that's as relevant today as it was 200 years ago.
It's brilliant that this dress has raised this much. I know it will go a long way to help the people facing this food crisis in East Africa.

I wanted to put up a 'Do Not Disturb' sign because I was so embarrassed about anyone going in.
