I Already Feel A Bit Annoyed At

I Thought A Parent's Job Was To Tell Their Children Not To Go Into Acting As A Profession!

So Far I Haven't Really Been Prominent Enough To Get Critical Attention Focused On Me. So, Of Course, I Fully Expect Bad Reviews, But I Will Be Wracked With Misery As A Result.

It's Very Difficult To Find The Time Or The Money For People To Organize Rehearsals For Some Movies. It Staggers Me How Little Preparation Often Goes Into These Scenes Which Are Difficult And Complicated. You Think, "god, It's Crazy. I've Never Met This Person Before And Here I Am Having To Work At How To Do A Whole Performance On The Set." It Was Great To Have A Few Days Of Just Talking To Michael [caine] And Daniel [barber] And Thinking About The Characters And The Relationship Between Them Before We Started Shooting.

It Is Brilliant Going To The Theatre And Being Forced To Sit And Listen And Think About Life. It Can Be Almost A Near-religious Experience.

My Dad Had This Philosophy That If You Tell Children They're Beautiful And Wonderful Then They Believe It, And They Will Be. So I Never Thought I Was Unattractive. But I Was Never One Of The Girls At School Who Had Lots Of Boyfriends.
