Everyone knows in the industry that when these great roles come up, every two years, there's a huge number of people up for them. I'm not one of those top five females that can personally finance any film.

And whatever my weight, I've always been skinny from the waist up.

I care so much less, now, about going up the ladder; if I cared about the ladder I would be doing it all very wrong.

I live quite an unsettled life.

To newspapers and publishing houses I urge the use of fact over fiction, freedom of the press, and responsibility at all times.

So often people say something and you realise you haven't really heard it.

It's very difficult when there are pictures taken on the red carpet. I find those things so terrifying that another persona just kicks in. I don't recognise myself.
