I didn't want to do a costume drama. It's a great thing to do, but I've done them, and I didn't want to do the same thing again.

I wanted to be an actress, rather than an English actress.
Carey Mulligan

Carey Mulligan
I didn't work for a year after Wall Street. I finished that in November, and then it was the following October that I did Drive, so I took a year off. I didn't do anything at all, really. I just hung around.
Carey Mulligan
It's funny that you can murder someone horribly and graphically and disturbingly in a horror film, and it's not an NC-17, but if you put a naked man on screen, everyone freaks out.
Carey Mulligan
People in New York just seem a lot more open than I thought they would be.
