The making of 'Naked' was an absolutely phenomenal, mind-bending experience. That film was life-changing and put my career onto a whole different level.

I don't want people to sit there and objectively watch the film. I want them to experience it as something that's under their skin, so you try to make the films really tactile.

I'll never be able to really see a film that I'm in.

I thought I was going to be a lot more freaked out by being naked onstage. I think on film I would have been more freaked out, because film is less forgiving. But onstage it's lit so beautifully. It would make my mother look good.

It is something actresses need to go through and I think they look forward to being naked in a movie. I don't know why, but it is something you need to exhaust from yourself.

I've never much been interested in doing films that no one gets to see.

It's very liberating to be naked in front of a hundred people, but there's nothing sexual about lovemaking on a movie set.

I don't think I'd ever start making a film until I had both the intimacy with the subject and the distance to make it live in a certain way.

I would never knowingly go into a film that I wouldn't pay to see, or something that didn't challenge me.

I would never want to do something just for the sake of being independent or for the sake of doing big films. I'm always surprised by the material I'm attracted to. And that's how I like it. I like to be surprised.
