I get grumpy about the innate conservatism of our tastes I love bold theatre, and I get annoyed when a heritage piece is really successful.
Romola Garai
I wish I was a more adventurous person in a way. But actually, security is a really big deal for me.

Acting is a strange job because your control is very limited.
