As you get older, you realize it's work. It's that fine line between love and companionship. But passionate love? I'd love to know how to make that last.
I don't see myself as a stand-up comic doing cynical, mean-spirited or disrespectful stuff. I'm very aware that I don't like to disrespect people too much.
I'm not a film snob.
There were no examples of girls like myself becoming successful actresses. To be an actress in England was a serious, upper-middle class girl's profession. I just thought I would never be accepted unless I pretended to become somebody I wasn't.
It's the poignancy and sadness in things that gets to me.
My influences were Peter Sellers and the great British character actors.
