Theatre is liberating because it only works if it's truthful, That's what it requires. That's not true of film: the camera does lie.

Every time, at any point of my life, I think now is always the best age to be.

So often when you meet child actors, they're weird - they're freaks. No, I mean it, they're really odd people.

I spent my teenage years in Paris when my dad was stationed there, and I'd look at women in their forties and think, 'That's the age I want to be.'

I think it's very important not to grow up with the unhealthy amount of attention that is sometimes put on people because they are 'actors'.

I've often sat down with people talking about a film I've been in, and they haven't realized I was in it.

I use my awards as doorsteps. Others are in the office or in little cubbyholes in our library – they go between the books, because they actually look like arty pieces
