It's hard to tell what people realize. Everybody's different and has a different understanding of the difference in times.

He [directo Park] gave me a sculpture, a jaguar. It is the animal, obviously, and it is in my bedroom at my parents' place at the moment. But I am just about to move into my own place and I shall put it somewhere there. I shall make sure it has good lighting. This will be my first place of my own and I am so excited.

I always thought the piano scene was kind of unique to shoot because we were actually able to film with the playback of the actual song. And that was quite amazing because it almost made it easier - music is usually something that is added after filming has finished so to be able to shoot a scene with music was really wonderful.

It sounds corny to say, but it was really inspiring seeing kids that were just living and connecting with people. That was something I really understood, the need and want for connection, and fun, and it not needing to be sympathetic, just sort of good fun.

Although I'm not particularly troubled myself, I do have a lot of empathy for troubled characters.

I get restless easily so I always want to keep working, but I am trying to pace it as well.

There's a whole language to movement and how you embody someone, and how you can use different techniques for different characters. I guess just posture, and the way you walk, and the way you physically are. All of that says a lot about who someone is.

Director Park always talked to me about her in a very innocent way, that the story was of her coming of age and her sexual awakening and her going from girl to woman and that she had the same desires and hopes as other young people in terms of being very infatuated, which comes in the form of her uncle, which is very unconventional.

You are relying on a waiting on other people in acting and films, so to be able to have something that I have full creative control over is really very therapeutic.

I got the first thing I auditioned for - a guest role on two episodes on 'All Saints,' and I don't think I had ever been that excited.

It's really rare to get a teenage role that resembles something of what it's like to be a young person, that isn't a cliché or a stereotype.

Doing an accent removes you from yourself and reminds you, every instant, that you're playing a part.
Mia Wasikowska

Everybody is completely different. I think there is no formula for filmmaking. Everybody finds their own way of doing things.

I really like trying to find the roles that are actually really meaningful to me.

I think it's possible to have the kind of career you really want if you want to. You just don't do the things you don't want to and you just have to be cool with waiting for something to come around that you really feel passionate for.

I always start a film thinking I know how to do it, then I learn all over again.

Coming from dance, I feel acting is - I'm not going to say easy, because it's not. But the dance world is more hard-core.

I like my anonymity - that when I meet people they don't know me.

Image
With dance, you learn to channel nerves into energy, excited energy. It's sort of similar when you walk into an audition room, to be able to go takes deep breath and then go in real calm. It was in those ways that it really helped me.

I like to do projects that challenge me, and hopefully in turn challenge the audience, or open your eyes to something you're not aware of.
