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.

More quotes by Alice Englert
I think a lot of people want people who actually have qualities they don't find attractive as a way of being able to change them. It's fascinating, because people think if they can change the other person, they can change themselves. It's a complex phenomenon. It's a fantasy that's actually about being able to come to terms with ourselves.

I'm a big fan of being able to hold those long shots and use space. I don't know, I think everything's so quick cut these days, as if films are too afraid that the audience is going to get bored instead of relaxing and trusting their work.
Alice Englert
I've always loved fantasy. I think it's a great way to look at issues that we have in our own lives with a little bit of the pressure off, you know.
Alice Englert
I can ride horses. And I read a lot. But that's kind of it. I think it's enough.

I eat meat. I don't go to the gym.

It's not what you see on-screen that makes a performance. It's the things you should never know about - it's the secrets.
Alice Englert
What's interesting is, for myself, when I become really attracted to somebody, I find them in my dreams... conversations, nothing more.

I've spent half my life on planes. I have a lot of love for New Zealand, though. That is where the really arty, whimsical side of the family resided - in Hobbitland.

I dropped out of school and I never took acting classes.
Alice Englert
It's a bit like school camp, shooting a film. Everyone's on heat. It's a strange energy. It's full of adrenalin. I funnel my excess energy in funny little ways. I do a lot of dancing in my trailer. I love music.
Alice Englert
I deliberately went to boarding school. It was my choice. My mum was abroad and I wanted to wean myself off being dependent. It was a very important time for me to be able to create my own individual, independent life just as a way of growing up.
Alice Englert
I think I read films having grown up around the pre-production and post-production aspect of the filmmaking medium, a lot more than most young people who are in acting would have experienced. I do think about scripts in a different way. I can't just read a script as an actor. I don't know how to do that.
Alice Englert
Personally, I like films that make me a little bit uncomfortable because I think you're uncomfortable when something is real.

Being in love is not cool!

Apparently I had lunch with Johnny Depp when I was three months old.
Alice Englert
I grew up on film sets but more around the process of making films. I saw a lot of the editing process and the writing process, which takes years. That really affected me growing up, that side of it.

I think the theme that I was attracted to in 'Beautiful Creatures' was you claim yourself. In my opinion, I think that's a really valid idea and I'm glad that that's our foundation.
Alice Englert
There is something about the South that accepts the supernatural. If you don't accept it and you're having a conversation with someone who does, it's just one of those polite things where you don't question their belief in ghosts. You just go, 'Oh, yeah, okay.' It's amazing to be able to have conversations like that.
Alice Englert
I was raised with adults. I skipped knowing how to interact as a normal teenage person.

I can't do an accent unless I'm on the set. I forget how to do it until I'm on the set.
