There are a lot of movies about misfits that are quite cool, that kind of glamorize it on some level. I think there are fewer films, certainly with a lady at the center, about the agony of what it's like to feel like you're not accepted, and you're different, and somehow you're weird.

I think acting can be very frustrating, and there's no experience that doesn't make you a better actor.

Twin Peaks' is my favorite American TV show.

It sounds trite, but I like telling stories.

Sometimes I can spend months doing things to make sure that my instincts work correctly, but ultimately it's still instinctive.

There are people all over the world who like to write fan letters in the voice of their pet: 'Hello, my name is Fifi and I'm a labrador and I think you're great. Paw paw!'

I've played an awful lot of repressed people.
