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.

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.

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 don't have much time for shopping so I pick things up when I can. My favorite labels are APC, Isabel Marant and Agnes B because the clothes are cut small and have a simplicity to them.

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 think, as an actor, you're always traveling. There's a sense of dislocation sometimes from home.
Felicity Jones
Image
Most of the time I was in the background. I never played [the Virgin] Mary. I was always kind of the third angel.
Felicity Jones

I want to be paid fairly for the work that I'm doing. That's what every single woman around the world wants.

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

We live in a time where it's more surprising if people are actually together than if they're having affairs.

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.

I'm keen to have balance, as much as possible. I put every ounce of myself into my work, but also it's important that I don't miss every single wedding of my best friends. I couldn't do what I do without my friends and family.
