If You Don't Have Eyebrows,

I Certainly Don't Feel Like I Am Desperate To Run Away From A Film Set. I Love The Hustle And Bustle. Everything Is Sort Of Mad Right Before A Take, And Then It Just Settles, And You've Got These Two Minutes Of A Bit Of Magic. I Just Love That In Film.

I've Been Dealing With So Much Press For Brooklyn, And Now I Am Rehearsing For A Play, And It Is Hard.

Ivo Van Hove Is Directing The Crucible, And Rehearses In Quite An Unusual Way. We Started Rehearsals Last Week And Dived Straight Into The First Act, Like, Five Minutes After We All Turned Up. No Warm-ups. We Were Very Intensely Immersed In That Whole World On Day One. It Was Quite Surreal Because I've Never Done Any Theater Before.

I'm Very Much For Strengthening Our Industry At Home. It's Great Now There's A Lot Of Work Happening But I Think With Irish Film In Particular, The Views Were Starting To Get A Little Stereotypical And We Were Pigeonholing Ourselves A Little Bit. We Needed To Get Out Of That.

Sometimes The Director Will Want You To Write About The Character, Sometimes He'll Want You To Live In The Location That The Character Is From Or Something Like That, But I Don't Usually Make A Lot Of Notes Or Anything Like That.
