Quote

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.

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

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

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

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.

I really enjoyed it - being involved in watching rushes and playback [in The Invisible Woman]. Ralph [Fiennes] was very open to my input, I think knowing that he couldn't always be there 100 percent, that he had dual aims with directing and acting.

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.
Felicity Jones
Image
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.

I'm small. I'm petite. But I'm a bit of a fighter inside. In my work I fight for, I hope, showing women in a true way. They've got brains.

Those moments when you don't feel self-conscious, when you escape that, are when you produce something meaningful.
Felicity Jones

I always hope for roles that have some depth and that I can get my teeth into and that will challenge me, in some way.

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.

I think, as an actor, you're always traveling. There's a sense of dislocation sometimes from home.
Felicity Jones
Image
[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
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.

I do sort of appreciate Nelly's [Ternan] view that it would be woman who would suffer mostly from that - who would be ostracized. The rigid societal conventions meant that it was difficult to live outside of them.
