When you're believing in the person that you're playing, you feel protected. It's about being true to that person you're playing.
Felicity Jones
I was a tomboy running around in the garden. I used to play on a local cricket team. I grew up with all boy cousins, for the most part, and my brother.
Felicity Jones
I have a great plain blue shirt from APC, and a denim one from Dolce that I wear constantly. It's hard to find the perfect denim shirt, but this is it.
Felicity Jones
What's amazing about the show [Girls] - the first (season) is about the girls and then the second (season) is about the boys as well. There's something so human about it.
Felicity Jones
I've been very lucky. Directors I've worked with have been very amenable to changes.

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.
Felicity Jones
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.
Felicity Jones

Now we live in a time where the public and the private are completely fused and there isn't such a great distinction. We know our private lives are constantly made public. With Facebook and Twitter there isn't such a desire, it feels, to keep things private.
Felicity Jones
Sometimes there are changes that need to be made.
Felicity Jones
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.
Felicity Jones
I'm a real geek. I love spending time researching a character and reading about them.
Felicity Jones
It can be very intense being an actor it can be quite a small world. Then you speak to your friend who is a scientist and they have a completely different perspective.
Felicity Jones
Those moments when you don't feel self-conscious, when you escape that, are when you produce something meaningful.
Felicity Jones
You have to be brave and not always play likeable people. It's difficult, because there's a demand for the hero or heroine to be very likeable.
Felicity Jones
I always had a very strong sense of independence.
Felicity Jones
I've done a lot of very low-budget indie films, so it was just really exciting and fun to be doing a film where there's a lot more time and these huge, vast sets. I was like a kid in a playground. It was amazing!
Felicity Jones
I'm more of a freestyle dancer. I like to do my own thing.
Felicity Jones
But for everyone, I think, there is always a pressure to conform, and I guess as you get older you realize it's less interesting to do that. It starts with you, though, saying, 'I know what I like doing and that's what I'm going to do.
