retirement thinking careers
I'm so lucky to have a career in my fifties. And to still have the desire to do it. I don't think about retirement.
careers people age
You have to be desirable. And that's why so many woman of my age or even younger are pushed to Botox and plastic surgery, all the things that people say, 'Why do women do this?' Where do you go in your 50s in your career?
bigs reviews big-heads
I don't read reviews because if they're bad I'm devastated and if they're good I get a big head.
caring care who-cares
Who cares what you are just enjoy it!
europe tv-shows america
The British have been more up for it than the Americans were, particularly with respect to nudity in the show. In Europe there are adverts that show the breasts, so people are less frightened of that aspect of the show. Americans can withstand incredible violence on TV shows - which, as I come from England and Canada, I find difficult to stomach - but they are more puritanical when it comes to nudity on screen.
hard-work past thinking
I have a very healthy dose of self-loathing. But I think we all have a past of being whatever our story was, of feeling not good enough. It can propel you to work harder and do more, but it can also be a tremendous trap, and you cant see beyond it.

roles construction basics
At the beginning of every role I take, I have to start from basics and build it up. It's like a new construction.
smart play excess
Vulcans are so smart. There's no excess; it's just enough. I learned coming away from the film that less really is much more. Sometimes, as a human, you get so discombobulated with emotions, but this was easier, because it was s o clean to play.
reflection jeans shoes
What I wear is a reflection of where I am going and how I am feeling. If Im in a good mood, its got to be cashmere and jeans - just something comfy, soft and warm. When Im down, I might find something that I havent worn for a while that was bought for me - or wear a brooch or a pair of shoes that are like old friends.
stress exercise care
I take care of myself, which includes dieting, exercising and minimising stress. I joke that I've been on a diet since 1974, which is basically true,
theatre trying england
My experiences in film and theatre in the States have been much more rigorous-in England there's an environment of, Let's try this.
theatre roles film
The roles for women in theatre are much better than they are in film.
theatre done again-and-again
Theatre can't be done again and again and again and again - it's organic.
