You have to surrender less when you see a film than when you go and see something live.

The one thing that all great cities have in common is that they are all different

Any industry loses its innovation and loses its access to creative juices if you don't have progressive thinking and diversity.

Inquiry and curiosity is really important in any profession, but definitely in what I do. And in parallel you also need to be confident enough to try things. So it's a tricky thing sometimes to balance those two states.

Some days I'm very lazy, and some days I'm more inspired. I've got things I've had since I was fifteen - I don't throw anything away. I prefer to give it to a friend so I can wear it again...The way I dress doesn't necessarily have to do with fashion, or what is current, or what is in right now, it's more about rediscovering things.

I never really think about my gender, first and foremost - until a door is closed to you. Until you can see a parallel opportunity with a man in a similar place in his career and you think, That opportunity is not open to me or my fellow actresses. That's interesting.

I look at someone's face and I see the work before I see the person. I personally don't think people look better when they do it; they just look different.
