More quotes by Rebecca Hall
I've always had horrible Valentine's Days.
Rebecca Hall
To read a character I'm not sympathizing with is generally quite a good, attractive proposition because I've got somewhere to go, I've got work to do, to try to understand why they behave like they behave, to relate entirely and understand them and to be completely emotionally connected. That is much more fun 99 percent of the time.
Rebecca Hall
One aspect of my mum's personality that has influenced me is her love of Hollywood and the golden era of black-and-white films.
Rebecca Hall
You don't get roles like leading character in 'Christine' very often because people don't really like women on film to be unlikable. I think Christine is lovable, but I don't think she's likable. I think there's a fundamental difference. For me, those are the richest ones. Men have had a career of doing those kind of things.
Rebecca Hall
I think loads of people see acting, when they're kids, as these magical stories that just happen within the context of the film or the play or the cartoon or whatever they're seeing. They don't imagine that there are actually people that go and do that for a living.
Rebecca Hall
I was the kid that grew up watching Bette Davis films.
Rebecca Hall
There's always going to be a separate version of you that people will create, and you have no control over it.
Rebecca Hall
There are a lot of movies about misfits that are quite cool, that kind of glamorize it on some level. I think there are fewer films, certainly with a lady at the center, about the agony of what it's like to feel like you're not accepted, and you're different, and somehow you're weird.
Rebecca Hall
I think acting can be very frustrating, and there's no experience that doesn't make you a better actor. So people may choose to explore their other talents.
Rebecca Hall
My mum's American. She's from Detroit.
Rebecca Hall
We cannot talk with [animals] as we can with human beings, yet we can communicate with them on mental and emotional levels. They should, however, be accorded equality in that they should receive both compassion and respect it is unworthy of us to exploit them in any way.
Rebecca Hall
If you act scared, your body produces adrenaline.
Rebecca Hall
I'm very nerdy about my music, and I like interrogating people about what they put on playlists.
Rebecca Hall
I don't think that anyone can really understand anything until it's understood on a cellular, emotional level.
Rebecca Hall
I try and avoid thinking of strategy and I tend to stick to my gun of doing things that I like and try to avoid things that I should be doing, and stay true to that.
Rebecca Hall
I daydream about things I want to happen, but none of it is more complicated, most of the time, than just really hoping that the good parts and the well-written parts are the ones that turn up on my doorstep.
Rebecca Hall
I don't want to make vast generalizations about people who go into legal professions, but there are similarities in the barristers that I met and interacted with, in the sense that they tend to be highly eloquent, highly analytical, thinking people who have a very rapid-fire think-before-they-speak button, as it were.
Rebecca Hall
I don't like talking about myself, if I'm honest.
Rebecca Hall
No family is sane, is it?
Rebecca Hall
I suppose the reason why I like acting is because I'm curious about human nature, and the less I know about a character on the page, instinctively, in a way, the better.
Rebecca Hall
