I Don't Know If I Believe In

Pedro Almodóvar Asked Me To Watch Italian Films Again As Homework To Look At The Energy Of All Those Women From The Italian Neo-realist Films. A Lot Of Them Had Those Characters That Represented Motherhood. For Some Reason, In The '50s In Italy, The Mother Figure Was Very Important - And My Character Needed To Have That Energy.

Pedro's Almodovar Different - Very Unique, Very Particular And Difficult To Compare To Anyone Else. But I've Been Lucky With Many Of The People That I've Worked With. I Think I've Been Very Lucky With Great Opportunities - Directors Like Stephen Frears, Cameron Crowe And Fernando Trueba, As Well As Bigas Luna, Who Gave Me My First Opportunity. There Are A Lot Of People I Would Love To Work With Again. But, Of Course, I Have A Special Relationship With Pedro And I Don't Think It's Good To Hide That.

To Be Able To Explore The Genre Of The Musical Is Nice. It Was Great To Be Able To Sing Professionally, For The First Time, And Dance, Which Was Something That I Did Growing Up, But I Had Not Done For Many, Many Years.

My Definition Of Beauty Is Without Rules. It Can Be The Face Of A Beautiful 90-year-old Woman That Is Full Of Stories And Emotion. Beauty Is What Somebody's Eyes Communicate.

I Like Roles That People Don't Recognize Me In.
