So I was in America and I thought I'll stick around while I'm here and just see what happens. The next film I did was High Art, so I guess it started with a sort of vague idea but really just a fantasy.

I don't smoke and I don't drink alcohol.

Doing nude scenes for me is totally fine. When you view it through the lens of a prudish, inhibited culture, then it becomes a little perverted. But the experience of acting is that you transcend your own experience.

I'm not working now, so I'm sort of facing the unknown.

So wearing a corset certainly changes your state of mind.

Yeah I think Pitch Black was edgy, I think that's what worked for our film.

I want to be a blonde vampire. Catherine Deneuve was a blonde vampire, and she was my favourite vampire ever.
