I always wear the shoes of the character a week before going on set the idea of just putting on a new pair of shoes on the first day of filming is just horrific.

I always had a very strong sense of independence. I really liked being able to buy my Alanis Morissette Jagged Little Pill album. I wore that as a badge of honor. I love not having to rely on anyone.

I couldn't do what I do without my friends and family.

Most of the time I was in the background. I never played [the Virgin] Mary. I was always kind of the third angel.

Image
I've done quite a lot of improv work before, and I wanted to do this film [The Invisible Woman] because it felt like a different technique. We were very true to the lines, and there was something quite formal and almost theatrical about it.

I'm more of a freestyle dancer. I like to do my own thing.

I think in every character there are aspects of yourself that you bring to it. But then it would be really boring to just play yourself.

My most treasured item is the brown leather bag that my mum bought me from a little Italian shop for my 21st. It's supposed to be a vanity bag, but I use it as a handbag.

I like to keep pushing myself and trying things out. I get easily bored, so I need a challenge.

I think Nelly [Ternan] actually has something very conservative about her, and she's very judgmental of (this other character's) situation, and can see that's about to happen to herself. So she judges it even more harshly [because] it's what she fears becoming.

A lot of my time is spent watching films and reading scripts. And it can be all-consuming. And it's obviously something I'm fortunate that is both my work and my hobby. It's what I would naturally be doing anyway.

It was lucky that Ralph [Fiennes] is someone who understands both film and theater and we were able to understand that scene so well before we took it to the set.

We live in a time where it's more surprising if people are actually together than if they're having affairs.
Felicity Jones
Image
I think that when something happens when you're growing up, like a death or divorce, it does open the world slightly because things aren't as straightforward.

The key is working with great directors. A film is so many different people and all their talents, but particularly the directors, because of the idiosyncrasies of that person.

Women want to be paid on parity with a man in a similar position.

[In The Invisible Woman] was a different type of performance which was less driven by improv. You always want moments of freshness and newness, but there was less so than I've done before.
Felicity Jones
Image
There's so much of a desire in the entertainment industry for newness, a desire to build somebody up and then treat them as old news within six months. I think you'd be naive if you didn't try to hold on to your own way of doing things.

The American vice would be sometimes speaking too loudly. You can always hear American people on the trains!

It was amazing how much rehearsal helped with the performance - it was almost a theatrical approach to filmmaking.

Fashion choices are never arbitrary. Even if you say you don't care, that's a decision. There's something you're trying to say.
