A lot of my time is spent watching films and reading scripts. And it can be all-consuming. And it's obviously something I'm fortunate that is both my work and my hobby. It's what I would naturally be doing anyway.

I'm very independent, creatively, always trying to push myself - and I think that comes from my mother.

I have a great plain blue shirt from APC, and a denim one from Dolce that I wear constantly. It's hard to find the perfect denim shirt, but this is it.

I've never taken a role where I don't like a person on the page. Sometimes there are changes that need to be made.

It was amazing how much rehearsal helped with the performance - it was almost a theatrical approach to filmmaking.

I think in every character there are aspects of yourself that you bring to it. But then it would be really boring to just play yourself.

I like Nelly's [Ternan] quiet inner strength. I thought there was something about her predicament that I found interesting - that she didn't want to be a floozy mistress, a bit on the side, that she had more self-respect than that.
