coffee people stuff
The weirdest moments for me are in Los Angeles when I go to a mall that I've shopped at since I was 12, and now there's like, massive pictures of our faces everywhere, at my local coffee shops now there's these billboards of people wearing the T-shirts and stuff. It's very strange, but it's really exciting.
thinking people attention
When it comes to the work, I'm excited to see what people think. When it comes to the private life, that's when I don't pay attention.
party people meetings
At a party recently I was introduced to Meryl Streep, and it took me a second to get my head around it. You know, that I'm meeting these people now. I'm doing it.
people conclusion
People are quick to jump to conclusions.
people important stand-up-for-yourself
It's really important to stand up for yourself and not always agree with what people say if indeed you don't feel that that's true
fun people scripts
It's great when improv is encouraged. It's a really fun thing. It depends on who's in the movie and how their process works, as well. It takes a director who is open to that because you have a script, but then something funny could happen on set. So, to have people around you who encourage improv is really exciting.
people different firsts
I had some difficult times when I first moved to Los Angeles when people would tell me I was saying things wrong. I felt different although my mum kept reminding me it was OK to be different.
thinking people live-in-the-moment
I'm not one to hide anything, but I don't feel the need to comment directly on [my relationships]...I think it would be a shame to not live in the moment and not enjoy everything that's happening in fear of other people's opinions.
fascinated
I'm just fascinated by visiting actual castles in the countryside.
creating english fairy running
As a little girl living in the English countryside, I used to go running around in the forests, creating my own fairy tale.
believe costumes disney fairy fairytale night tales
My parents read me fairy tales every night and I used to believe I was a fairytale princess, like every young girl. I had all the Disney dressing-up costumes and would play every character.
thinking everyday fairy-tale
I think the big thing is the fairy tale. It's taking old folk fairy tales and retelling them in modern day. I think it's just taking you out of everyday life, and everyone loves a good fairy tale.
growing-up crazy white
Snow White has always been one of my favorite fairy tales growing up. To be able to say, "I'm going to be Snow White" - it's crazy. It's an honor.
thinking passionate determined
I like to think of myself as a very passionate person, and as very determined.
