Performance Became Part Of My Art In

On The Surface, It's Really Easy To Dismiss Certain Characters, But Sometimes You Find That The Most Interesting Parts Are Disappointingly Shallow. It's Your Job As An Actress To Pull That Person Apart, And Work Out Why They Act The Way That They Do.

You Never Think You're As Old As You're Ever Going To Get.

Before I Go On Stage, I Knock Three Times. Three Is My Lucky Number; I Once Went Into An Audition And Was Number 333 And Got The Best Part Ever.

I Filmed 'albatross' Before I Got 'downton.' It's A Coming-of-age Movie About This Girl Who Leaps Into This Family's Life, Like A Whirlwind. She's Ballsy And Brash And Wonderful, It Was Such An Amazing Character To Play.

The Thing I Adore About Acting Is That It's Not Me: You Get To Experience All These Emotions, But Essentially It's Not You.
