I just stay healthy all year round. I try to feel good in my skin. For me, I have trained in ballet my whole life so my body really feels best when I feel strong and tight and toned, and I think that comes from years and years of constant training as a ballerina. Leading up to the show, getting out there in your underwear, you just want to feel your best mainly in your head than more anything else. Obviously you want to feel good physically too, so it's more just in your head, pushing yourself, approaching this challenge and taking the opportunity to push yourself a little further.

The fact is I am not having sex. But I feel absolutely ripe for the, what would you say? plucking?

If I didn't have my films as an outlet for all the different sides of me, I would probably be locked up.

I wanted to educate myself about the world and I wanted to know what was happening to people in other countries. I feel now I have only just begun.

Save one-third, live on one-third, and give away one-third

It's better to have nobody, than to have someone who is half there, or doesn't want to be there

I love directing, It means so much to me to direct stories about subject matter that I care deeply about. I can act in many things, and you can try to experience different characters, but to direct is years of your life and you have to really love it and believe in it.
