Everything that I am going to do as an actress doesn't matter where it's coming from. It just has to be interesting.

Growing up, my parents treated my brother and me with absolute equality.

I think 'NH10' could have been done equally well by anybody else, and it's not a 'female-centric' or 'male-centric' film. It's the story that will appeal to the audience.

I don't think that a film should be known as 'male-centric' or 'female-centric,' but it should be known for the story. That would be really nice, and viable, too.

I was very lucky. I left college, and Richard Eyre was in charge of the National Theatre. I was offered the lead in 'The Seagull' with no experience and went on to do five plays there.

When I am occupied with a work that requires continuity - a novel, for example - I write every day.

I love to visit the comic shops, and I don't want to call myself a 'foodie,' because that word is just stupid, but I love diner food, and I'm a hardcore fan of 'Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives.'

I'm most comfortable definitely when I'm on the ice. I love to play. It's something that I just love to do.
