english-actress happiness people sort
I was happy, I wasn't beaten, and I lacked nothing. But it wasn't what people expect - it was very much sort of pinching and scraping. I don't know how my mother did it.
sweet mean people
It doesn't make you feel very good being mean and fierce; it is much nicer playing people who are kind and sweet.
people quality use
People accuse me of being Methody, but I'm not at all. The one thing I don't want people to see is me. I don't want them to be able to recognize my faults and failures and qualities, and I won't use those things to spark off emotions or to illustrate.
mother people pinching
I was happy, I wasnt beaten, and I lacked nothing. But it wasnt what people expect - it was very much sort of pinching and scraping. I dont know how my mother did it.
people focus skins
I can't get into all that physical stuff of having to have flawless skin... Sometimes you see people and it looks like someone's got an eraser and made their face a little blurry - their traits seem to go out of focus.
inspiration humor people
I'm not one of those famous people flying round the world emoting over every catastrophe. I'm too feeble.
people forget very-good
I'm very good at forgetting people.
class people film
I'm not at all fed up with British films, but I am fed up with playing upper-class people.
people bully horrible
I know I can be bolshy and really unpleasant, and it always happens if I lose confidence in the people I'm working with. If I've got no confidence in what I'm doing and they don't provide me with some assurance that we're doing the right thing then I bully people. I'm a horrible bully.
opposites people interest
Now, playing a love interest can be really thrilling, if you're working opposite thrilling people.
thinking people shining
I think people do work too much. I've never been able to understand the whole 'make hay while the sun shines' thing. Either I want to work or I don't want to work.
rose people different
People are always saying, English, English, English rose, and I just feel so completely different.
long people feelings
I have a feeling I will work for a long, long time. I like it a lot... and I don't know. I just have a feeling that I'm going to be one of those people who go on for ever.
people mail text-messaging
People will now go to films with subtitles, you know. They're not afraid of them. It's one of the upsides of text-messaging and e-mail. Maybe the only good thing to come of it.
