More quotes by Emily Blunt
Americans are a lot more open, of course. There's something more declamatory in the way you express emotions. It's a stereotype but it's true. British people can appear repressed in expressing emotions. Not very good at self-evaluating, or affirming situations, touching, anything like that.
Emily Blunt
I appreciate a slow-burn romance. In most movies, everyone is just tearing their clothes off in the first scene.
Emily Blunt
I think that's almost what it is sometimes if you sum up what acting is. It's just the ultimate expression of empathy.
Emily Blunt
It's very hard to play the straight lead girl and still make her sparkly and fun and real.
Emily Blunt
I'm not much of a crier but it is mildly soul-destroying and exposing to do something physical that you are terrible at in front of other people.
Emily Blunt
If you're very open to watching the world go by, with people's different tics, you absorb it all without realizing it and find ways to put something into your character. I'm not sure I'm always aware I'm mimicking someone.
Emily Blunt
I do try hard to pick roles that differ. I love that about the job. I think the variety that's out there is to be taken advantage of and I enjoy that element of shape shifting with everything.
Emily Blunt
To not make any resolutions. Whenever I make them, I wind up ultimately breaking them. I think a lot of people are that way, so I am going to try and avoid inevitable disappointment next year and just not make any.
Emily Blunt
I find it very strange doing voiceover stuff, because you find you have to enunciate and make stupid faces in order for the point to make sense, because it's playing against the deadpan Simpson face. If you're just speaking in the regular way you speak, it will sound really boring.
Emily Blunt
It's quite hard to faze me. I'm fairly un-shockable.
Emily Blunt
I think it is nice for people to appreciate a slow-burning, beautiful story that makes you feel good when it is over.
Emily Blunt
I chop a lot of onions because I love cooking, and the times where I've never cried chopping onions is when I'm not thinking about it, when I'm talking to someone or I'm listening to music.
Emily Blunt
I don't really watch that much TV, to be honest.
Emily Blunt
My personal feeling is that audiences are crying out for stories they can invest in and feel. I see a lot of big movies that leave me feeling rather numb.
Emily Blunt
I think a shot can actually influence a scene in a huge way. For example, comedy is always better in a two-shot. What's between the characters is what's funny. So you learn about these things as you go along.
Emily Blunt
With Ricky Gervais, it's all shades of wrong, it's my kind of humor.
Emily Blunt
If you're in America a lot, it's easy to get into playing American. All of it, the sounds, the energies, all very different. But it's really hard to do the accent. I tend to try and stay in it all day, which is the only way I can manage it.
Emily Blunt
Things happen in the way they usually should. I'm a pretty fatalistic person.
Emily Blunt
I do strive to find projects that are trying to carve out some new space. I enjoy projects that leap away from the crowd a little bit.
Emily Blunt
When I read a script, I'll have a very visceral gut reaction to what does this mean to me? How does she feel in my skin? Could I play this role?
