It's lovely to work with a group of actors who make you laugh and smile.

I'd prefer to go under the radar and just do the acting without being famous for it.

There is a part of me that is not fulfilled by acting. It is a self-involved life; it can feel shallow, but not very often.

At my school, Shakespeare wasn't on the syllabus - at least not for me.

I'm a theater actress. I love rehearsal. I could have six weeks of rehearsal and think it's not enough. But on film, you don't get that luxury.

I act because I have to, because I need to find out whether I can do it or not - that's what drives me and excites me and lights me up.

Being at the pinnacle of my career is not to turn up in some multiplex blockbuster.
