I don't make movies thinking: 'Oh, this is going to be a huge box-office hit.'

What I really tried to do with Helen was make her show this sad side of her. She was married off at 16, was so young and living in this castle that can't leave because of how she looks, and married to a man she hates and three times her age.

I like the idea of accessibility, coming from a lower-middle-class background myself, I feel like beauty and products should be accessible to all women over the world.

I don't have any romantic ideas about marriage. Trust me. A white dress... ? No. It's not something for me.

It's quite a famous story that takes place on Christmas Eve, and the Germans, French, and Scottish are trying to make peace one night and they bury their dead and they play football. I play a German opera singer, in German, which I never have so I am really excited about that.

Yeah, to me, acting is very therapeutic. I get out a lot of anger and frustration.

What counts in Hollywood is box office. It doesn't really matter what people think of you as an actor because, as long as you have been in a movie that has made money, you will always get another job.

I would do anything for a part, nearly anything. Being in movies doesn't mean being pretty.

A lot of directors idealize their leading ladies or turn them into these objects of sexuality and beauty.

I'm not a very good impersonator, my friends maybe, but not famous people.

Her beauty didn't do her any good and she couldn't use it in any positive way or manipulative way. I just hope that people will look and see and believe in that hope of love, that hope of freedom, even if it was just for a limited time.

In between films I like to travel and hope to visit every continent before I become a mother.

Orlando's a really cool guy. They hired him for 'Lord of the Rings' out of drama school. He's very new at this still and doesn't have a lot of experience. So we were in this together and we've tried to help each other out. We felt very equal which was good.

I have three goddaughters - I'm not sure why they trust me, because I have no experience with children - but I try.

I'm not one of those women who thinks beauty is a curse.

I have a kind of boring personal life, to the paparazzi anyway, and I don't hang with the cool crowd.

Critics can be harsh and I think it's going to take me a long time to make people see what I have inside of me and that I really put my guts into movies and that I'm not superficial and that I'm not just a pretty face.
