More quotes by Cate Blanchett
It's interesting when you get those roles, which seem like nothing on the page, and you kind of subvert them. It's hard to say no.
Cate Blanchett
I never really think about my gender, first and foremost - until a door is closed to you. Until you can see a parallel opportunity with a man in a similar place in his career and you think, That opportunity is not open to me or my fellow actresses. That's interesting.

Cate Blanchett
A film is not a documentary. And what's wonderful about film is that it's a real provocation for people. I never, ever see film as being an absolute version of the truth.
Cate Blanchett
If you only exercise your soloist muscles, the other muscles quickly atrophy.
Cate Blanchett
You have to surrender less when you see a film than when you go and see something live.
Cate Blanchett

Cate Blanchett
You do get scrutinized in the digital age. You know they're zooming in on every pore, which you've got to forget about.
Cate Blanchett
When I was younger, I was actually looking forward to getting older, to have more insight, more understanding.
Cate Blanchett
People talk about the golden age of Hollywood because of how women were lit then. You could be Joan Crawford and Bette Davis and work well into your 50s, because you were lit and made into a goddess. Now, with everything being sort of gritty, women have this sense of their use-by date.
