Harry Cohn did not make me. But I also feel that I probably didn't make me, either. I think it was a combination. I think that's what made it work.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Before my son was born, I use to tell people that I was looking forward to no longer being the star of my own movie; then Harry came along, and it was like, 'Whoa, I'm really not!'
I like to think that Harry Cohn is having a somewhat difficult time sleeping in his grave thinking of a chick with a white shag rug taking over his space.
'Harry Potter' gave me back self respect. Harry gave me a job to do that I loved more than anything else.
The thought of playing a New York detective scared the hell out of me. I didn't know if people would believe me in the role just because of my physicality, which made me want to do it even more.
I didn't so much choose the film as director Claire Denis chose me.
I've always thought that as long as directors and casting directors don't see me as just Harry Potter, I'll be OK. People have shown a lot of faith in me, and I owe them a huge debt. They're letting me prove that I'm serious about this.
But I was also a big mouth, I started to develop a troubled relationship with Harry Shorten.
You don't make a movie, the movie makes you.
I auditioned for the part of Cosette in 'Les Miserables' on Broadway. It didn't work out.
I don't think anyone has made me except myself. I think I have done it on my own.
