Zitat des Tages von Anna Friel:
I want more children but for the next three years I want to act.
Being a mother gives you an incredible feeling of empowerment, you think if I can go through such pain and that level of sleep and still operate and not be grumpy you can do anything. It can be quite scary, you can't function your brain, forget your vocabulary.
We will spend more time in America, we're going to get a place in LA as hotels aren't great for the baby.
For Closer, we've had five weeks. You go into every single word because it's very, very concentrated dialogue.
As long as she is talented enough and passionate about doing it herself then I will be happy and support her. I think I will be sensible - my parents said I could only do it if I got my education and so I had something to fall back on.
Onstage, there's no hiding; you either can or can't act. There's no second take.
Well it's hard to bracket it like that because everyone always thinks you either go to America and you come back, fail or succeed, but it doesn't work like that.
You can see when an actor gets bored: Their eyes go dead. I promised myself I'd never let that happen. If it does, I'll go and live on a desert island for a year.
I've been onstage once for one performance with four days' rehearsal.
Now learning a bit more about footballers I think what they need to do well, is someone who really wants to stay in the background and just be a strong support.
It's really important to draw the line on what we do as actors.
I've always chosen incredibly different roles and things that are quite offbeat. That way you're not limited.
I've never been onstage in my life.
People became more interested in my love life than in me, and that has a certain effect. You start to feel very empty and worth nothing, you start to become a piece in a board game you never wanted to play.
I play a character every day of my life, and I don't want to play a character as myself. They can judge me as an actress, not as a person. I'm not a spokeswoman for Anna.
