Film sets are great fun. Film people are great people to hang around with. I don't want to run off and be distracted by other things.

If you're lucky enough to be involved in a film that's about something very real and that you hope will continue to hold up in 20 years' time it just gives you more energy and makes it feel all the more worthwhile.

I didn't study Greek mythology in school and I wish I had.

The Israeli accent wasn't one that I was overly familiar with so had to learn from scratch but I was very fortunate I had the right amount of time.

When I go on the plane to fly home, I'm literally capable of forgetting what I do for a job. That also comes about because I choose to take massive breaks between projects, and because I choose to do this ridiculous thing of keeping home, home.

A girl's got to be fun. It's the one bit of advice I always give to friends of mine who are thinking of getting married.

The reason my kids come to the set is so I can actually see them.
