Sometimes the director will want you to write about the character, sometimes he'll want you to live in the location that the character is from or something like that, but I don't usually make a lot of notes or anything like that.

More quotes by Saoirse Ronan
My name means freedom in Irish.
Saoirse Ronan
There's so many modern films where the fans take one side or the other. I'm hoping this isn't going to be like that I'm hoping it isn't that kind of film at all. What I would love for the audience to take from it is to understand why she was so stuck in the middle and confused.
Saoirse Ronan
It's too distracting to read about yourself. You want to be perfect and you want everyone to love you, and that's never going to happen.
Saoirse Ronan
I love New Zealand. It's my favorite place to shoot. It's one of my favorite countries to visit. The people, the food, the landscape, everything about it I love.
Saoirse Ronan
I don't look at rushes, or I don't go to the dailies. I don't even really look at playback unless it's an action scene or a move that I need to do better, something like that.
Saoirse Ronan
I think I do believe in the afterlife I have heard stories from people who I can completely trust that have seen ghosts.
Saoirse Ronan
There's no one out there like Quentin Tarantino. His films have a signature look, and they never just stick to the same kind of story.
Saoirse Ronan
Lindsay Lohan was the 'It' girl from, like, 14. That's a lot of pressure.
Saoirse Ronan
I like my characters to be ones I think about long after I've finished reading the script.
Saoirse Ronan
I remember being on Atonement and it felt very right to be there. There was so much excitement every day. I remember very vividly how it felt to be a child on a film set, and that is actually really important to hold on to for as long as you continue to make films.
Saoirse Ronan
I'm very much for strengthening our industry at home. It's great now there's a lot of work happening but I think with Irish film in particular, the views were starting to get a little stereotypical and we were pigeonholing ourselves a little bit. We needed to get out of that.
Saoirse Ronan
If I'm in the middle of a take and I start to think about what I'm doing, I just mess up and I have to stop and so I find that for me, you really need to trust your instinct.
Saoirse Ronan
I don't think you could get anything worse than losing a child. I think if my child died, I would prefer it if I were dead.
Saoirse Ronan
I've found that I'd be the first one to cut lines.
Saoirse Ronan
Ivo van Hove is directing The Crucible, and rehearses in quite an unusual way. We started rehearsals last week and dived straight into the first act, like, five minutes after we all turned up. No warm-ups. We were very intensely immersed in that whole world on day one. It was quite surreal because I've never done any theater before.
Saoirse Ronan
We've done a lot of films now about the IRA, we can move on from all that. I loved '71 because I think it showed a very honest trail and what it was actually like. It wasn't one-sided. I really respect ['71 director] Yann [Demange] for what he did. But we have done a lot of those things.
Saoirse Ronan
I've always been quite mature because of the way my parents brought me up. They were very good at talking to me like a person rather than a baby, and I was around so many actors and directors from such a young age because my dad is an actor. I was more comfortable with adults rather than actually being an adult child.
Saoirse Ronan
I like to get far away from myself when I'm acting.
Saoirse Ronan
I think it's important that we have strong, female characters in movies now, which can really leave an impression on people - especially young people - and that they're not 'sexy' or 'cool'.
Saoirse Ronan
I love a lot of comedy actors and actresses like Kristen Wiig and Tina Fey and all those women who are really brilliant and funny.
Saoirse Ronan
