More quotes by 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
Although I'm not particularly troubled myself, I do have a lot of empathy for troubled characters.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
Mia Wasikowska
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 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.
Mia Wasikowska
I come from a background of independent films.
Mia Wasikowska
I want to just do my job and do it well.

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.

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
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.
Mia Wasikowska
I like characters who remind me of someone I know.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
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
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.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
Mia Wasikowska
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.
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
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
Any time you get a role that's a young person, that resembles what it's like to be a teenager, I always kind of jump at it.
Mia Wasikowska
