 I don't believe your soul mate has to share your politics. |
| In L.A., unless you've just won an Oscar or you're Mr. Studio Head, no one talks to you. Even at parties. |
| I've always been fascinated by activists, people who will devote their life to a cause, people who go to India and to Africa and put their life in jeopardy to do what they believe is right. |
| If I'm just in dungarees, I don't think I would intimidate anyone. |
| L.A. makes you feel ugly. |
| As a child I was the best tree climber in our neighbourhood, I was like a little monkey. I've never been afraid of hurting myself or a little physical discomfort. |
| The older you get the more capable you get at managing life. |
| That was me under the bath and the water being held down. The director wanted it to look as real as possible so he told Keanu, in front of me, don't go easy on her. So it was scary. |
| I prefer being as far from the centre of celebrity as possible. |
| It's also that comedians don't have the kind of narcissism that actors have. They're writers who perform their own material. It's more interesting. And they're sexy because they risk more. Stand-up comedians risk more than anyone. |
| I find Hollywood really toxic. |
| There's not much room for eccentricity in Hollywood, and eccentricity is what's sexy in people. |
| I think London's sexy because it's so full of eccentrics. |
| As Ralph's character begins to discover the political thriller aspect of the film, he falls deeper in love with his wife, so the two run together. That's the beauty of this film. It has fast pace and excitement, but it also has heart and soul. |
| I moved to New York last year and I love it. It's a huge change and I've always wanted to spend time there. It's like a more intense London, and everything's up a few notches. The lights are brighter, the pace is faster and the food's better. |
| People find out I'm an actress and I see that 'whore' look flicker across their eyes. |
| You have to be quite stupid to act. |
| 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. |
| 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. |
| I think actors have a choice of drawing attention to themselves or living on the outskirts. |
