What my father especially taught me was to not always take the safe road, the easy road. If you are going to do good work, you have to risk failing badly.

Part of the reason for moving to New York was the sense that it just didn't matter how much work I did in England, I continued to be seen simply as a Redgrave. I did feel I could be who I am in New York and we all like to feel appreciated.

I need advice and opinion-honest opinion. I want to get better. Why go around with blinkers on?

On the day we filmed the scene, a bee stung me. I screamed and cried so much they called a doctor, and my father said, "It can't hurt that badly!" But it wasn't the pain that upset me, it was the thought that I mightn't be in the film. Already the little professional.

Whats in the movie compared to what we shot is the tip of the iceberg.

A film is a director's vision... there is, however, much input an actor or actress can have.
