I'm lucky to get jobs where I get these amazing film horses that make me look much better than I am.

I didn't grow up around wild horses, no. But I've appreciated their beauty and their power ever since I can remember.

What is compelling with 'War Horse' is the jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring craftsmanship in this movie.

I never thought I was particularly good looking. But when I see old photographs, I realise that I was. I do wish I had known that at the time because beauty is power. I didn't realise how lucky I was to be young, beautiful and in Hollywood. It didn't hit me. Every day I woke up, went to the film studio and just got on with it.

I grew up around horses, but acting and riding on camera is a whole different thing.

In films I might look glamorous, but I've been in hair and make-up for two hours.

There is certainly no absolute standard of beauty. That precisely is what makes its pursuit so interesting.

I did a film a long time ago with a shaved head and I had the ugliest looking head in the world.

I'm extremely particular how my look should be in a film.

Even though photographers are only shooting the outside, beauty is more about who you are as a person - the life you lead - not your facade.
