More quotes by Helen Mirren
I love photography and I love the art of photography. So when I'm working with high-level art photographers, I give them artistic freedom because I want that for myself when it's my turn to do my work and I never try and control it or say I'll only do this or I want it like that.
Helen Mirren
I don't get to play the same role over and over in different movies. The roles that I get to play are quite varied, which is great.
Helen Mirren
As an actor, those are the roles that you long for. You always want something that's going to kick your last role out of the water and put you off on a new path.
Helen Mirren
I resent having witnessed the survival of some very mediocre male actors and the professional demise of the very brilliant female ones.
Helen Mirren
I love that country [Israel].
Helen Mirren
When you're young and beautiful, you're paranoid and miserable.
Helen Mirren
Any role that's proactive is a great role, and action roles are by their very nature proactive. You get to do stuff. I hate sitting in a corner - I'd much prefer an action role in a popcorn movie rather than pining in a corner not doing anything.
Helen Mirren
When you're 16, you think 28 is so old! And then you get to 28 and it's fabulous. You think, then, what about 42? Ugh! And then 42 is great. As you reach each age, you gain the understanding you need to deal with it and enjoy it.
Helen Mirren
Once a film gets into production, the actors sometimes begin to have more input than a writer does.
Helen Mirren
I hate people eating on film. I hate it even worse on the radio, when people eat on the radio. I just can't stand it.
Helen Mirren
I have never in my life found myself in a situation where I've stopped work and said, 'Thank God it's Friday.' But weekends are special even if your schedule is all over the place. Something tells you the weekend has arrived and you can indulge yourself a bit.
Helen Mirren
The control and understanding of our personal fears is one of the most important undertakings of our lives.
Helen Mirren
You have to go through the long, painful process of learning techniques to be able to recognize a good accident or a bad accident.
Helen Mirren
I think still it is very fine not to want children. There are far too many people in the world. It is my contribution to ecology.
Helen Mirren
I've always been battling against my sense of dignity and refinement. I was embarrassed by any bodily functions when I was younger. I could never even blow my nose.
Helen Mirren
I was part of the first generation of girls and women to be educated and go to grammar school even if we didn't have much money. Then that generation went, 'OK, great', and went into medicine or the police, and hit this wall of discrimination from older men who hadn't caught up.
Helen Mirren
Two phrases I hate in reference to female characters are 'strong' and 'feisty.' They really annoy me. It's the most condescending thing. You say that about a three-year-old. It infantilises women.
Helen Mirren
I'm a naturist at heart. I love being on beaches where everyone is naked. Ugly young people, beautiful old people, whatever. It's so unsexual and so liberating.
Helen Mirren
I think a lot of my work has been a weird attempt to liberate myself, but it's not altogether successful.
Helen Mirren
I don't like the word 'strong,' because a strong character is never an interesting character. A character is made interesting by their vulnerabilities and their weaknesses.
