I think that dancing has helped or prepared me, in a number of different ways, for the film industry, especially with controlling your nerves when you walk into an audition because you're on stage from a young age.

More quotes by Mia Wasikowska
What I like about film is it explores imperfections.
Mia Wasikowska
You never choose the way that you're raised, it's just the way that you were raised, but you do get to a certain age where you're in a position to question the expectations of you and the way that you've been formed by your surroundings.
Mia Wasikowska
I was a bit of a loner as a teenager. I never went to a single social event, because they terrified me.
Mia Wasikowska
Acting really suited me because I could connect as an actor to emotion.
Mia Wasikowska
Dancers are kept in a perpetual state of pre-puberty, and for young girls in particular, that type of pressure breeds insecurities.
Mia Wasikowska
Traveling to Russia and Germany and being able to see the world at a young age was really cool for me, and I really liked that.
Mia Wasikowska
As an actor you have to wait for someone to cast you, so you're relying on the business.
Mia Wasikowska
I like my anonymity - that when I meet people they don't know me.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
Mia Wasikowska
Everybody is completely different. I think there is no formula for filmmaking. Everybody finds their own way of doing things.
Mia Wasikowska
I always collect a bunch of images for every film that I do, that reminds me of an essence of the character, or the time that they live in, or what they're experiencing.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
Mia Wasikowska
Doing an accent removes you from yourself and reminds you, every instant, that you're playing a part.
Mia Wasikowska
Everybody who is an actor has been acting since they were three.
Mia Wasikowska
I come from a background of independent films.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
Mia Wasikowska
I really like trying to find the roles that are actually really meaningful to me.
Mia Wasikowska
I think that because most films where there's a teenager, it's aimed at a teenage audience. Restless is - I wouldn't classify it as a teen film, strictly, but it's definitely a film that appeals to young people, but also gives them credit for their complexity.
Mia Wasikowska
It's hard to tell what people realize. Everybody's different and has a different understanding of the difference in times.
Mia Wasikowska
I like characters who remind me of someone I know.
