The things that go on in my head are far more interesting than what actually happens...
I want to be tested beyond my comfort zone. I don't want to be safe if it is more interesting to be dangerous.
I'm interested in going places that I haven't been. And I'm interesting in working with people that I feel are dangerous and sort of push me in different places.
I'm drawn to the psychology of really interesting, flawed people.
I think particularly with this it's a theme that runs through a lot of my films which is the love a mother has for a child .
I thought I was doing a small play in an experimental theater, and I couldn't believe the reaction it got, ... I was so nervous the opening night, and then, once the play started, I thought, 'Just go for it.'
I think Daniel will just smoke in it. He is such an accomplished actor.
I say to the writers, please keep writing for us, we're very interesting. And to the directors, please keep taking chances and giving us complicated, rich characters to play.
You can still fight when someone can't talk.
To be honest, I am completely natural. I have nothing in my face or anything. I wear sunscreen, and I don't smoke. I take care of myself and I'm very proud to say that.
It's not about me in a wierd way its about the people who help get me here.
They asked me if I would accept and I felt slightly embarrassed.
It was far more complex than I thought it was going to be in terms of the duration it was shot for, but also in terms of the characters, and working with my husband, and dealing with the subject matter we were dealing with, ... It was difficult at times but it was incredibly rewarding and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
Compared to the Cannes film festival, this is a sedate crowd.
