None of my costume designers have ever been nominated for an Oscar 'cause I don't do period movies that have ball scenes with a hundred extras in them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
First of all, I never make a movie for awards consideration.
It even sounds stupid to hear myself say the first costume designer I worked with was Catherine Martin, and she won an Oscar for it, but that was just my very lucky draw of roll of the dice.
I've trained myself not to put too much emphasis on awards, only because I never got into acting to win an award.
I've never won an award for anything, and I think it's weird. I mean, that's really cool but it's strange to think you could get an award for acting. I always thought that was strange.
You don't make pictures for Oscars.
Don't get me wrong: I would not say no to an Oscar!
I'm the only person who's ever opened the Oscars or done a spot on the Oscars without a script and having it on autocue.
I don't think I ever expected anything like an Oscar ever, to tell you the truth. That is not my motivation when I do these roles. I really am motivated by being able to work with great people and create a body of work that I can look back and be proud of.
I've been working every year since I started acting, and I got many awards before I won the Oscar for 'The Queen.'
You never make movies for Oscars.
