More quotes by Naomi Watts
I find myself gravitating towards drama. It interests me. In the books I read, the paintings I like, it's always the darker stuff.
Naomi Watts
There was a time I was very much blaming the way I felt on L.A, that it was a vacuum of creativity, of humor or anything organic, and I was really angry at the place. But then today I feel completely different - I love L.A.!
Naomi Watts
Directors are our teachers, and I'm always craving to work with a great director. They're pretty much the first thing that interests me about a project. Let's put it this way: It'll take me a lot longer to read a script if there's no director attached.
Naomi Watts
What you want, as an actor, is a great leader. I can't bear it when I work with a director who is wishy-washy and says, What did you think?
Naomi Watts
I think whether you've got children or not you're just more aware of others as you get out of your 20s.
Naomi Watts
If I have to produce movies, direct movies, whatever to change the way Hollywood treats older women, I'll do it. If I have to bend the rules, I will. If I have to break them, I will.
Naomi Watts
In your 20s - and these are generalizations of course - I feel like I didn't care about as many things or as many people, or even myself, as much. There's more recklessness and more ruthlessness you're not as considerate of how things land with other people I think.
Naomi Watts
Since I had children I have taken huge amounts of time off. In a way it's a really good thing, in this show business especially, to have lots of private time, having lots of time to be in the world to observe people and read and take care of my kids helps me to come back into work with a thrill.
Naomi Watts
It's always nerve-racking to take off your clothes on film. But doing it with a woman felt safer than with a man. You know you can say, 'Don't grab me there: That's where my cellulite is'!
Naomi Watts
Who are we when we leave our families? Who do we become? What are we capable of? That's something that never leaves us. It begins at that point in your life when you leave the nest, and I don't think we stop wanting to explore that question.
Naomi Watts
Female roles in comedies are usually quite silly, I think.
Naomi Watts
I consider myself British and have very happy memories of the UK. I spent the first 14 years of my life in England and never wanted to leave. When I was in Australia I went back to England a lot.
Naomi Watts
I felt I grew up when I was about 28. I feel pretty much the same. I get reminded when I look in mirrors that I am not. Hopefully, you keep growing and keep planning things as you go along.
Naomi Watts
Rodrigo Garcia is a brilliant writer. He just loves women. It is evident. When you are in the presence of him you can just tell he has a terrific understanding of women. He has two daughters, and he loves his wife.
Naomi Watts
I think when a man sees a woman who knows what she wants it can be scary, but it can also be tempting.
Naomi Watts
We're so afraid of death in our culture, but I think if we understand it better, then we'll appreciate the life we have more.
Naomi Watts
I meditate. I do transcendental meditation and I have been doing that for a long time and that does just clear the mind. I am not religious at all.
Naomi Watts
Noah Baumbach writing is really wonderful. I think the way he plays out each character with a unique voice is really impressive, and rhythmically his dialogue works.
Naomi Watts
Some movies are the kind you take home with you at the end of the day, and some, you can let go.
Naomi Watts
My spirit had been broken a bit over the years by my having to work on films I didn't love. Hollywood's a surreal place, and it really is an assault on your spirit.
Naomi Watts
