When you're up for an Oscar, you just get offered everything. It's fantastic, but a lot of it you're completely inappropriate for.

That's the thing with animated films - I often feel that puppets get the better parts compared to us normal actresses.

I remember I did think, 'Wouldn't it be nice if Mr Right moved in next door?'

It was weird because I was pregnant, throughout that so it was weird being a pregnant witch. I was in a really bad mood but luckily, because I sleep with the director, he just sort of scheduled me so I only had to do it two nights.

Mothers are the heart of any household. I try to spend as much time with my children as I possibly can while also fulfilling my professional duties. It is tricky, but I think I manage it.

Journalists are always calling my features Edwardian or Victorian, whatever that means. I am small, and people were smaller in those times. I'm pale and sickly-looking. I look fragile-like a doll. But sometimes I just wish I had less of a particular look, one that was more versatile.

I love movies where people see the world from a different angle.
