Mildred Pierce was capable of great acts of love as a mother.
Mothers who work full time - they're the real heroes.
My kids don't go back and forth; none of this 50/50 time with the mums and dads. My children live with me; that is it.
Let me tell you, 'The Reader' was not glamorous for me in terms of the body-hair maintenance.
Lots of male friendships begin as a cheeky snog. Or a little undercurrent of flirtation.
No actor wants to play someone else's performance.
None of this 'different diets' lark. I can't remember the last time I tried some new fad.
No one has a right to comment on anyone's life or the choices I do or don't make.
No one can look bad when you've been lit for six hours.
My dad was very much a struggling actor and spent more of his life as a postman, as a member of a tarmac firm, as a van driver.
Mum and Dad were very much friends and up for life. There was no anxiety for anything when I was growing up; they just taught me to be me.
There's nothing bloody wrong with wanting it at all.
On the whole, the politics of moviemaking is something that actors are kind of blissfully ignorant of.
Commitment to one other person in life is glorious.
