To be honest, it's easier for me to speak with an American accent.

There's something really nice about having a group of people that you're committed to, that you work with and that there's a future in it. Film is like a party, and then it's over, whereas this hopefully feels like a family.

I think in this, definitely, because you are feeling how it felt to live in a completely different time. The mannerisms and the way that people behaved was quite different.

I'm not working now, so I'm sort of facing the unknown.

So wearing a corset certainly changes your state of mind.

Women no longer need to be in a relationship. You can pay for your own life, you can have children on your own, basically do whatever you want on your own. So if you're going to create an addition to your life, it should be about love. That makes me happy.

I had a friend, and we always used to pretend to be twins. We had this fantasy about going to Hollywood together. We were about four.

Femenizm for me is equal opportunities for everyone on the planet. If women are going to prostitute themselves, men should as well. There should be more male hookers. And eighteen-year-old women should demand satisfaction from their men.

It was kind of scary because working with Woody Allen becomes sort of a big deal in your mind. He directs in that Woody Allen character some of the time - he has these idiosyncrasies that are really charming and funny.

I mean normally you have your agent call the other agent and all the agents talk and then finally you get a phone call and you hear some misrepresentation of what someone else had to say.
