I did this scene in 'Lars and the Real Girl' where I was in a room full of old ladies who were knitting, and it was an all-day scene, so they showed me how. It was one of the most relaxing days of my life.

I have to learn to knit.

My mum taught me to knit when I was a child, and I turn to it, for some weird reason, when I'm feeling depressed.

But I prefer to go to comedies. Give me Julia Roberts smiling anyday.

I really believe that if you practice enough you could paint the 'Mona Lisa' with a two-inch brush.

I was really into old musicals. When I was seven or eight, my mum and dad would be like, 'How does she know who Ginger Rogers is?' Then, one weekend, Josephine Baker popped up in a French film called 'Zouzou,' and I was so stunned because she looked like me.

I kind of did this thing in high school, a spoof of 'Sweeney Todd' called 'Shirley Todd,' and I had a great time doing that.
