 I find a lot of young filmmakers make too much of an effort to be trendy and they can be pretentious. |
| There are people out there who want me to fail, who want Jude to fail, who want our relationship to fail. |
| It is so important that you don't stay with someone just for the children and for the wrong reasons. |
| My parents are from Manchester but I was brought up in London, Camden Town. |
| At home it's all Batman and Star Wars and they do gang up on me. Sometimes I don't want to dress up as Darth Vader or play train sets, so I'll go out for a drink with the girls. |
| I'm always the girl at the party who, within five minutes, has taken my heels off, hitched up my dress in my knickers, and probably spilt drink down my cleavage. |
| When you love someone so much that you are in pain when you are apart it ends up being destructive. I never want to be in that place again. |
| I haven't done an international film for a long time. |
| I'm the kind of person who'll have a few drinks and fall asleep at 11. |
| I always wear flat shoes, because I can't walk in anything else. |
| I really fought to make my character not a stereotype. I play a soap star with dyed blonde hair. |
| Just to be remembered is good enough for me. Lots of people are forgotten. |
| When I had my first boy it all started and that male energy seemed to keep me awake but since my daughter, who's incredibly serene, I can't seem to stop sleeping because she's asleep all the time. It's a pattern. |
| I'm playing a very strong character, it's the story of the woman Polish Jews out of the Warsaw ghetto. I've just begun my weapons training and the SAS type training that's getting me fit. |
| I've concentrated for a long time on English films because I've got two kids but my oldest son is 11 and I think I'm going to be away for about four months of year now. |
| I never thought I'd spend all my life with Gary. I suppose I was quite cynical about marriage. But with Jude, I knew right from the beginning: there was an electricity I'd never felt before. It was so easy, we talked for hours. It was a relief, really. |
