I love being around great actors and film-makers, and I try to hide the fact that I'm in awe of them.

I think that with any emotion - fear, love, nervousness - if the actor's feeling it, then the audience feels it.

I don't want to be in my car all day. I love getting up in the morning in Venice and walking my dogs down to the cafe to get my tea, and then perhaps going to a bookstore and sitting and reading, then walking to the beach.

When something happens, I always check myself and know it's going to go away. So be prepared for it. This is a tough business for actors who are sensitive. If you try to hold on to things, you'll go crazy.

I wouldn't say no to being in a film with Jude Law. I love English actors.

I've always been a big fan of Mariah Carey. I think it's her personality. As much as she has an amazing voice, she has a crazy personality and I love the fact that she's not afraid to hide that.
