loss political stories
It is a political thriller. It's very action packed and it's very exciting, but at the same time it's a very big soulful love story about longing and loss. They're not separate, they're completely dependent on one another.
names people tribes
People still kill in the name of religion. We haven't evolved to the point where we're one tribe called humans.
women mean blow
If I went out in killer heels and full makeup, blow dry, the whole thing - anyone dressed up like that could be intimidating to men and women, really. It's so, look at me. Do you know what I mean? But I love women.
spiritual rocks floating
And I guess, I guess it's a humanist film. It's not really a spiritual film and it's, you know, it's saying that we're all one tribe of humans and we're on this little rock, floating through the universe and (Amenabar) has these (transitional shots of) POVs where you see humans like ants.
romantic girl winning
Because I think in order to get famous you have to be known for something. Like 'You're the romantic comedy girl' or 'You're the Oscar-winning whatever girl.'
knows
I don't know anything about science.
mum has-beens
For me, being a mum has been a really, really instinctive thing.
night reality upset
In reality, the main thing that keeps me awake at night is probably the destruction of the planet that's what gets me pretty upset.
kids green easy
Working with a green screen is easy. It's just like being a kid. But it's not nearly as satisfying.
passion luxury trying
I was offered more work after the Oscar. When I was younger, I would take whatever I was offered because it was money and work and experience. In a way, choosing is the hard part. I know that's a luxury problem, but it's true. I try to go where passion takes me.
life nice people polite time
In real life, I'm polite and nice all the time. It's fun to play people who aren't. It's escapism.
people
Some people like having eyes upon them and I don't.
characters drawn good
I'm very drawn to characters who are very flawed. I'm less interested in characters who are just good or bad, because to me then they're not real people.
plays school star
I wasn't a big star in the school plays or anything.
