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.

I was very lost as a teenager. Which is a horrible way to feel.

You have to think about whether that Mercedes-Benz you have is actually worth how much it costs to you.

If you're feeling insecure and you need to feel special, the best place to go is somewhere foreign where people treat you as special because you're different.

As a younger actor you want to be approved of, you want to gain respect, be admired. All of those things. To say: 'This is me playing this character. And aren't I fantastic!' I don't feel that so much now.

I'm a bit of a Doubting Thomas - always worrying about things.

You don't choose a film because it's made by a woman, you choose it because it's good.
