I read everything. I've always got a book on the go and I'm really nerdy about it, I get through books and don't remember anything about them afterwards. But I read all sorts, from classic to contemporary.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I grew up watching his movies; I know everyone did, but I really feel that a lot of my formative years were informed by Woody Allen films.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Whenever I'm in theatre situations I will go out of my way not to talk about my father, but in the film world I can be really proud of my family and say, 'You know what: my dad's a really, really famous theatre director,' because nobody has any idea.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I'm a very private person. I barely tell my friends what's going on half the time, so the idea that I should then talk to the world about what is going on seems anathema to me. People can say what they want. I'm not going to change anyone's mind.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Some people just don't have the tools to deal with the stuff life throws at them.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
The kind of career that I want is not easy as a lady to manifest, because everyone wants a lady to be likable.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
One of the great things about the 'Iron Man' franchise is that they employ fascinating actors who don't necessarily do action movies. Before 'Iron Man' you didn't associate Robert Downey, Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow with those kinds of films. There's an emphasis on repartee and wit.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Shopping is a bit of a relaxing hobby for me, which is sometimes troubling for the bank balance.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
When you work with filmmakers, and it's their first film, there's an exuberance and optimism, which is quite... There's no room for being jaded. Thinking that you know it all.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I love clothes. I've never actively followed trends, but I definitely know what I like and what I don't like. I think fashion is a really important and empowering thing. I don't think it's superficial, actually, I think it's very important.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Your principal motive on a movie set is to get the film made, but on a Woody Allen set, there's an ulterior thing that goes on, which is, 'Did you have a conversation with Woody? How friendly have you been with him? Am I liked by him?'
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I've just started to get really envious when I go into people's houses and see books on a shelf.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
There's so much crap attached to acting: the fame aspect, the ego aspect, the 'Am I good, am I bad, am I being judged, who likes me, who doesn't like me...'
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Nobody engages in a film, regardless of what your job is in it, to make a bad one.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I felt very fulfilled after doing 'Vicky Cristina Barcelona' because I'd always wanted to work with Woody Allen. That was like a lifelong dream, and that was thrilling for me, to enter that world.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
A lot of people go through life trying to perform normalcy, and I think you can relate to that.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Anyone who commits an act of violence to themselves or others is worth consideration in the sense that there must be something that brought them to that point, whether it's a mental health issue or otherwise.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I don't have regular TV; I have Apple TV, so I pick what I watch, which is perhaps not a good thing. I read all the big publications and also listen to a lot of podcasts.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I've worked on so many films where the script is one thing and then, somewhere down the line - on set, sometimes - it changes, and there's zero I can do about it.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
For better or worse, I don't necessarily categorize myself as a method actor; I'm not going to make claims that I stayed in character 24/7.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
If you imagine yourself to be someone who is very uncomfortable in their own skin, then it does funny things to your voice.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Yes, I'm a complete itinerant. I keep making attempts not to be, but then circumstances make me uproot and go somewhere else again. It's not the worst thing in the world at all; I love it. In fact, I'm probably horribly addicted to it.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I think I have a job, which is to present a character in a story and entertain you and divert you with my work - that's it.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
At some point, you have to be willing to accept other people's opinions. I think that's helpful.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
The kind of films I want to make are struggling to get made. And if they are getting made, they're getting made on shoestring budgets with not enough time.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
The last thing that scared me... it was probably something stupid, like when someone jumped out at me, or I thought my new dog had gone to the toilet underneath my piano. Lots of silly things.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Some of my acting heroes have built careers on playing characters who do horrendous things - they're repellent and lovable. They're not likable, but they're lovable. I think Christine is one of those characters.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I thought there was something intrinsically fascinating about people who communicate for a living and are incapable of communicating in their personal lives.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
It's one thing to think about something, but it's another thing to actually feel it.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I don't think that anyone can really understand anything until it's understood on a cellular, emotional level.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
Since 'Christine' started screening, I'm overwhelmed by the response from women and men - that it's so rare to see something like this. We're just not given the opportunity so much.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I think that female roles, they can be victims, they can be sympathetic, they can be in pain, they can be in suffering - but they can't be ugly. I think there's so much fear surrounding that, that it makes a film unlikeable, that it won't sell.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
I really think that 'Christine' is one in a million in terms of independent or studio.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
My childhood was very colourful, and I am very good friends with both my parents. We have no secrets.
Quote by -Rebecca Hall
One aspect of my mum's personality that has influenced me is her love of Hollywood and the golden era of black-and-white films.
