More quotes by Carey Mulligan
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. Of course, costume dramas can be from all different eras, but at the time, I just felt very sure that I didn't want to be boxed in as an English actress. I wanted to be an actress, rather than an English actress.
Carey Mulligan
I don't think you should ever damage other people for your art.
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.
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 wanted to be in a Baz Luhrmann film. It's just extraordinary. He's so amazing at what he does. He makes the most incredible films.
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
I'm not going to work for the sake of working. I'll work, if I'm extraordinarily lucky enough to continue having the same opportunities, but it will be based on whatever is there. If there's nothing around, then I'll go home and make carrot cake for awhile.
Carey Mulligan
I have always hated nightclubs, and don't like loud music.
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 can actually cook one meal now, as opposed to before, when I could cook nothing. My family are very excited.
Carey Mulligan
Sex addiction is a subject that should be discussed
Carey Mulligan
People in New York just seem a lot more open than I thought they would be.
Carey Mulligan
I wanted to be a musical theatre actress - I wanted to play Sally Bowles, forever and ever always.
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
From Wall Street to Drive was almost a year, when I didn't do anything 'cause there was just nothing that was significantly different from the things I'd done before. There was just nothing to explore.
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
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
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
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 never sit in a cinema and go, Ah! I want to be in that film!
Carey Mulligan
