It Makes Me Feel Resilient

It's The Idea That When You Say 'actress', People Think Of An Airy, Floaty, No-brain Person, Which Of Course You Can't Be If You Are An Actor. It Is An Unfortunate Word, Which Is Why, For A Time, I Hung On To 'actor', Because It Just Seemed More Workmanlike, You Know, Like You Say 'woman Doctor' Not 'doctoress'.

The Writing Is The Springboard For Your Intuitive Stuff And Then You See, Maybe A Colour Of What You Want To Achieve. Then You Bring In The Technique You've Learnt. But When You're On Film, You're Not Always In Control Of That. That's What Makes Me Believe In A Kind Of Collective Unconscious, A Sort Of Experience You Draw On.

I'm So Boring That Press Kind Of Leave Me Alone Now. People Will Believe What They Want To Believe Anyway.

I'm Not Someone Who Can Lie On A Beach And Do Nothing. I Am Not Sure What You Are Supposed To Do, So I Get Bored. I Prefer To Have A Purpose, Such As Going To Alaska To See Orca Whales.
