Filming is completely - was totally new to me ... I had a movie career which wasn't supposed to be, so I couldn't be more thrilled. For those who work, parts seem to get more interesting.

I have no control over a film. I don't know what will be left on the cutting floor.

Never fall out of love with life

We get up in the morning. We do our best. Nothing else matters.

The more I do, the more frightened I get. But that is essential. Otherwise why would I go on doing it?

I would like to work with Jack Nicholson, before it's too late.

This is just the loveliest news. I'm so happy for everybody involved, and so proud to have been part of the wonderful experience that Philomena has been.
