More quotes by Rebecca Hall
I always look for contradiction in a character.
Rebecca Hall
I read everything. I've always got a book on the go and I'm really nerdy about it, I get through books and don't remember anything about them afterwards. But I read all sorts, from classic to contemporary.
Rebecca Hall
When we are aligned, everything can flow, and life and yoga becomes effortless.
Rebecca Hall
One of the great things about the 'Iron Man' franchise is that they employ fascinating actors who don't necessarily do action movies. Before 'Iron Man' you didn't associate Robert Downey, Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow with those kinds of films. There's an emphasis on repartee and wit.
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 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 don't think there's a single person on this planet that doesn't have a day when they feel like they're off, like they're not doing a very good job of being them. We all relate to having highs and lows. Everyone gets depressed.
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
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
I was the kid that grew up watching Bette Davis films.
Rebecca Hall
A floor length backless black sequined dress would be my dream dress. As for my dream date - that would have to be a young Marlon Brando!
Rebecca Hall
I think for a long time it seemed like working in an art form and being a feminist meant portraying women in a perfect, angelic light. And there's nothing feminist about that.
Rebecca Hall
I've played an awful lot of repressed people.
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
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
You either are a good director or you're not.
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
I've always had horrible Valentine's Days.
Rebecca Hall
I don't like talking about myself, if I'm honest.
Rebecca Hall
No family is sane, is it?
