“I was dubious about the entire thing because I knew Joe didn’t want me. I felt that after The Jacket, where I’d had John Maybury turning around and saying, ‘I don’t think you can act and I don’t want you,’ I just wanted to work with somebody who immediately goes, ‘Great, be in my film’. Our meeting wasn’t great at all and I knew I hadn’t got the part. Joe was so jetlagged and I’d been very much forced into it and I was so frightened of going for it anyway. But when I met him again in London and he realized that I am a complete tomboy and scruffy and not what he’d imagined, he offered me the part. It was the realization of a life-long dream.”

“Apparently there’s an internet campaign to get the North American ending in the British version. Do you have a preference?
I think I prefer the version without the kiss. Only because I find it quite difficult to watch myself anyway. But I don’t know, I find it saccharin”.
