It was a challenge to be able to create a character without being able to use one's normal set of expressions. All the rubber and makeup attached to your face left you with only a modest range of facial movements.

More quotes by Helena Bonham Carter
I'm the kind of actor who has ventured into escaping from me.
Helena Bonham Carter
I do think imperfection's underrated.
Helena Bonham Carter
Usually I'm frustrated when I look at my films and I don't believe that I've made a real transformation beyond my usual sets of gestures and expressions. I still have this nagging feeling that it's me, that I didn't create a unique character.
Helena Bonham Carter
I just went and got an agent because I thought I can create my own world - you can't right your own life, but you can escape to a world where you can have control.
Helena Bonham Carter
It took me ages to grow into being a woman, into being happy with it.
Helena Bonham Carter
I was weird right from the start. It's just that you can't ever expect people to get you. And I do think that really did mess with my head, being well-known young, when you really don't know who you are.
Helena Bonham Carter
I drink booze, I smoke, and I'm hooked on caffeine. I actually have been known to swear at times and belch and even raise my voice when provoked. And I'm not physically repressed!
Helena Bonham Carter
I'm drawn to emotionally damaged characters because there is more to unlock.
Helena Bonham Carter
His mouth is a no-go area. It's like kissing the Berlin Wall.
Helena Bonham Carter
I'm always attracted to lower budget, not because it's lower budget, but because they tend to be better scripts.
Helena Bonham Carter
Everyone seems to think I'm very ladylike. That I'm very cultured and intelligent. I drink alot of Diet Coke and belch. I've been known to use the F-word. I've told a few dirty jokes. I arm-wrestle.
Helena Bonham Carter
No, I can never rely on Tim to make me pretty.
Helena Bonham Carter
The parenting bit is much harder than the acting bit. You just never know what to do.
Helena Bonham Carter
Because I sleep with him he asked me to audition, you know?
Helena Bonham Carter
I personally never got the gist of Facebook and Twitter.
Helena Bonham Carter
Am I a good example? Well, at least I'm not too thin. I eat.
Helena Bonham Carter
It was weird because I was pregnant, throughout that so it was weird being a pregnant witch. I was in a really bad mood but luckily, because I sleep with the director, he just sort of scheduled me so I only had to do it two nights.
Helena Bonham Carter
Tim also has enough confidence so that it always looks like a Tim Burton film, but it really is collaborative. You're allowed to do it your way but of course he's always going to choose his way.
Helena Bonham Carter
With the number of people I ignore, I'm lucky I work at all in this town.
Helena Bonham Carter
I think everything in life is art. What you do. How you dress. The way you love someone, and how you talk. Your smile and your personality. What you believe in, and all your dreams. The way you drink your tea. How you decorate your home. Or party. Your grocery list. The food you make. How your writing looks. And the way you feel. Life is art.
