More quotes by Carey Mulligan
What doesn't draw you into a Coen Bros. movie. It's amazing. I can't believe it! They're the Coen Bros. It's ridiculous.
Carey Mulligan
I don't think you should ever damage other people for your art.
Carey Mulligan
I've always been quite careful about what I wanted to do. I've just never wanted to revisit old ground or do something that's easy. I want to do something that I would look at and go, I don't know what to do! The most exciting thing is when you're a bit scared, so I'm looking to find something that's really terrifying.
Carey Mulligan
The toughest part of acting is never a single thing. It's more like a whole character. I find film really difficult - trying to make it feel like a consistent character when you're filming everything out of order.
Carey Mulligan
In London, people can be so... well, it's not even a case of people being unkind or unfriendly. You just don't make any contact in London. You go from A to B with your eyes on the pavement.
Carey Mulligan
You can spend an entire day walking around in New York, whereas in L.A., it always ends at some point because you have to find a way to get home.
Carey Mulligan
My character in 'Shame' is an outrageous person. Loud and uncompromising and I begged Steve McQueen to give me the job.
Carey Mulligan
If you're walking down the street in L.A., people do sort of look at you like you're a hooker because it's so rare to see someone just walking.
Carey Mulligan
I can change my appearance quite easily just by changing my hair. So I can adapt quite well.
Carey Mulligan
It doesn't matter what you feel - ultimately, it's what the audience feels. You can finish a scene and think to yourself, 'Oh, God. I was so deep in that moment,' and find it just didn't play. I don't know if I have very good radar about that or not.
Carey Mulligan
I remember in 'Pride and Prejudice' I had to do a scene where I broke down. And before we filmed I spent like three hours imagining my mum's funeral. Actually, she's very much alive, happy and healthy. It was really horrible.
Carey Mulligan
When you idolise someone, or you hold someone in such high regard, you just want them to be everything that you think there are - and when they are it's just lovely.
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
I was trying to find ways of not being pigeon-holed like that. I didn't want to be tied down by my accent. I wanted to play Americans. I don't want to ever be doing the same thing twice, and I just didn't want to repeat myself.
Carey Mulligan
I've never done coke or anything, and I've never played a character who has, so I don't know whether I would actually try coke if I had to play a character who took coke.
Carey Mulligan
There was an article in the New York Times that said that young men can't maintain healthy relationships because they're so influenced by pornography and what they see on the screen. It's something to be talked about.
Carey Mulligan
I grew up with an older brother, so I'm pretty good at being bashed around.
Carey Mulligan
I want to be in 'Glee,' but I'm told I'm not famous enough to be a cameo yet.
Carey Mulligan
The minute I get into a hotel room, I scatter my stuff everywhere. It's like a bomb site within a minute. So I suppose that means I'm trying to nest.
Carey Mulligan
With theatre especially, you don't want to do it unless you love it - there's no way you can pull it off, making people happy, making yourself happy for 12 weeks or whatever.
