I wanted to find the through-line of her mannerisms and where her nervous system lies. Diane is innately Diane. (Playing her) was such a beautiful lesson for me in terms of just being brave and bold with showing who you are. It wasn't so much mimicking her as understanding the spirit of who she is because it comes through in all her work. (On playing Young Ruth to Diane Keaton's Ruth) Hide

(on working on big budget films like 'The Pacific') In terms of budget [for The Pacific] it is. You'd open you're 1930s original wallet and there would be original lace gloves, and original diaries with entries from the character. I mean the detail was just mind blowing, and just seeing how the big budget American productions work - it was amazing. And I was very lucky not to have left our shores to work on a big American production. Because I know, if I was in America, I could be pouring beers in a dirty jazz bar waiting years to get my foot in the door on a HBO series... Hide
