I mean my father was killed when I was six. And I only have tiny, tiny flashes of memory.

I'm not used to being asked what I want to talk about. That's why I'm an actress. Get told what to do, stand on the mark, say your words, wear this, look this way, look that way.

Having a career is a bit like navigating an Atlantic crossing - you have to make sure everything is keeping and is balanced.

With the theatre, your whole day is geared towards the evening's show, and that's the job. People usually go to work about 9 and come home around 5, or maybe 7.

It's very hard having a career in different continents and two different languages.

I never raise my voice!

The problem with being a film actress or a movie star is that people see you so huge that somehow you're visually massive or somehow you're in some removed space, which is a television or wherever. It somehow takes your humanity.
