Some of my acting heroes have built careers on playing characters who do horrendous things - they're repellent and lovable. They're not likable, but they're lovable. I think Christine is one of those characters.
From Rebecca Hall
The last thing that scared me... it was probably something stupid, like when someone jumped out at me, or I thought my new dog had gone to the toilet underneath my piano. Lots of silly things.
If I sat around thinking about acting all day, I'd lose my mind.
It doesn't matter how much polite self-deprecating fluff you have on the outside if you don't have a steely something in the middle that says, 'You know what, I'm actually really, really good at this, and this is what I can do, and I'm going to do it.'
I was quite quiet as a kid. I sat around watching people.
I don't think I can boast about him. 'Hey, my dad is a British institution; he's done all these incredible things and I'm really proud of him.' There is a certain baggage that comes with that in England.
The kind of films I want to make are struggling to get made. And if they are getting made, they're getting made on shoestring budgets with not enough time.
I don't want to constantly be making sacrifices. It feels like it's really difficult for the films I dream about making to turn up.
At some point, you have to be willing to accept other people's opinions. I think that's helpful.
It's not like I particularly have an interest in creepiness for creepy's sake.
