More quotes by Emily Blunt
It's quite hard to faze me. I'm fairly un-shockable.
Emily Blunt
Why should you have to atone for making big movies?
Emily Blunt
I think I'm drawn to characters with complexity or who are under duress in some way and have some conflict going on.
Emily Blunt
If you can capture the humanity of a family struggling in an economic crisis you can make a difference. You can raise awareness just of the simple humanity.
Emily Blunt
It's very hard to play the straight lead girl and still make her sparkly and fun and real.
Emily Blunt
I don't really watch that much TV, to be honest.
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 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
When you're in love, you're so happy that you want to tell people about it. But now I have to censor myself. You need to protect the happiness you have.
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
With Ricky Gervais, it's all shades of wrong, it's my kind of humor.
Emily Blunt
I'm on a health kick! I'm drawn to cheeseburgers, so I've got to just try and keep it on an even keel.
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'm a big supporter of Joe Johnston and I think that 'Captain America' is going to be really fun and I gather that the story is really interesting. It just wasn't what I wanted to do next, to be honest.
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?
Emily Blunt
Watch the History Channel if you want it literal and historically perfect.
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
I'm kind of effectively bipolar.
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
It's sort of a meat market, the whole awards thing, and I don't think you can predict it anymore - who's going to like what you've done, if it's worthy or not. And hopefully, that's not why you make a film, because if you're distracted by that, or only striving for that, you don't do it justice.
Emily Blunt
