No, I can never rely on Tim to make me pretty.

It feels like a rash. It suddenly seems like I've got a contagion of diseases, I mean awards. But it's nice, it's a nice feeling. It's so weird, because I'm only 46. A lifetime Achievement award... it feels like 'I'm not over yet'. I hope they're not trying to say it's time to stop. I'm only just getting the gist of it.

Image
If you're a queen, you're powerless, so I'd probably demote myself and go shopping.

Image
Famous people come up to me, but I don't know who they are because my sight is so bad. It's always at the pool of the Four Seasons in Beverly Hills when I don't have my lenses in and my glasses are in my room.

Image
I should get a few ribs taken out, because I'll be in a corset for the rest of my life.
Helena Bonham Carter
Image
I look completely like my mum. She's very foreign, very Jewish.
Helena Bonham Carter
Image
Sometimes I get it right and I sometimes I get it wrong. But fashion is all about having fun. I think fashion has been hijacked by the fashion industry creating rules on what one should wear and I feel like breaking the mold and seeing that the world won’t crumble.

Image
Wear what you feel comfortable with. People say nasty things about what I wear in the street. I'm always in worst dressed lists, but you just have to dress for yourself and ­nobody else.
Helena Bonham Carter
Image
I love changing what I look like because I always feel super strange whenever I do watch something that I'm in.

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.
Helena Bonham Carter
Image
You learn to rely on a few basic movements and use your voice to the greatest extent possible to convey your emotions. So there was a technical challenge there and a responsibility to create a character from behind the mask.

I was like one of those nauseatingly nice children. I was very, very well behaved and boring.
