It Doesn't Matter What You Feel -

I Didn't Want To Do A Costume Drama. It's A Great Thing To Do, But I've Done Them, And I Didn't Want To Do The Same Thing Again. Of Course, Costume Dramas Can Be From All Different Eras, But At The Time, I Just Felt Very Sure That I Didn't Want To Be Boxed In As An English Actress. I Wanted To Be An Actress, Rather Than An English Actress.

It's Actually Easier To Play A Leading Role Than It Is To Play A Supporting Role.

When I Went To The Oscars - The Only Time I've Ever Been To The Oscars - A Few Years Ago, I Wore This Prada Dress Covered In Cooking Utensils. I Got Drunk At The End Of The Night And Started Ripping Them Off And Giving Them As Presents To People, So That Was Fun. I'm Pretty Sure That Was The Point Of It, That's How Miuccia Meant For It To Go I'm Sure.

Am I Reserved? I Think I Agree With That. I Don't Think I'm Particularly Original. I Am Quite Homey, Though. But Then I'm Also Quite Transient. I Quite Like Being Nomadic.

It Makes It Easier, If You Can't Do An American Accent. I Don't Know. It's Different. I Played A Character In Never Let Me Go Where The Script For My Character Was Very Sparse, And I Enjoyed It. With Never Let Me Go, I Had A Whole Book Written From My Character's Point Of View, So I Always Knew Where I Was. But, With Ryan [gosling], It Was Just Easy. He's Such A Brilliant Actor And He Is So Prepared. He Doesn't Have To Warm Himself Up To Be In A Scene. He's Just In It. It Draws You In, In A Way.
