If I was in Sydney, I love the beach. Even though I'm incredibly pale, I put on these terribly long unattractive rashies, and people laugh at me. My kids laugh at me. But that's what I would do.

I think it's important that we don't all have to hold our heads high all the time saying everything's fine.

You can ask me pretty much anything. There'll be things I'll go, 'That feels a little too personal.' But most things I don't have a fear of being asked about.

For me, my storyline [in Big Little Lies] is very complicated and nuanced. [The script] was so beautifully written. It was very, very easy to play. ... I think one of the scenes is almost eight minutes.

The thing I'm not good with is mediocrity, when someone isn't really trying to reach something.

I think love is the core emotion. Without that, and I've certainly existed without that, it's a very empty life.

I'm reserved. I'm more of an introvert than an extrovert.
