I made a French film called "Merry Christmas" which is a very European film. It's a World War I piece.

I know a lot of people think, 'She's so glamorous.' But that's really not me at all.

You have to have the passion. I could not live if I wasn't an actor. If you're just in it for beautiful dresses and movie stars, then I think you should not be an actor.

The reason I stopped modeling was because I wasn't pleased with trying to portray something that is impossible to reach. Even when I do photo shoots now for films, I'm just not interested in trying to look my best all the time anymore. That pursuit of an impossible perfection seems ridiculous to me now. I'd rather show my vulnerabilities or my doubts than try to be something that no one is.

I don't have any romantic ideas about marriage. Trust me. A white dress... ? No. It's not something for me.

Orlando's a really cool guy. They hired him for 'Lord of the Rings' out of drama school. He's very new at this still and doesn't have a lot of experience. So we were in this together and we've tried to help each other out. We felt very equal which was good.

I am a better person when I let myself have the time for romance and for love.
