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.

I don't believe in marriage. I believe in a commitment that you make in your heart. There's no paper that will make you stay.

What I really tried to do with Helen was make her show this sad side of her. She was married off at 16, was so young and living in this castle that can't leave because of how she looks, and married to a man she hates and three times her age.

You can learn any accent you want. It's a fascinating thing.

I'm European, small, dainty - but I actually consider myself more of a tomboy.

Yeah, to me, acting is very therapeutic. I get out a lot of anger and frustration.
