Seeing The English Patient is wonderfully draining, but imagine acting in it for six months.

I'm very wary of trust, you see.

My body is a baby machine.

I find it difficult to explain, but I'm quite ashamed of being an actress.

As an adult, it's a huge shock to be orphaned; as a child it's just hideous, ghastly.

Successful films are very dangerous things.

I find it very difficult to be two different characters at the same time - actress and mother.
