Cate's absolutely spellbinding. She was like that just eating a sandwich. I knew at the time I was privileged, but since she's become God's gift to actresses I realise exactly how lucky I was.

It's nice to play someone who is naive.

Why should you have to atone for making big movies?

If you're in America a lot, it's easy to get into playing American. All of it, the sounds, the energies, all very different. But it's really hard to do the accent. I tend to try and stay in it all day, which is the only way I can manage it.

People just want to know something, anything. It's all the stuff you never want to talk about, the private stuff.

I'm not someone who likes to plan too much ahead.
