Quote of the Day

“I hope I am shitting myself over the characters I play for the rest of my life. Because the day I go, ‘Oh yeah, that’s going to be a piece of pie,’ why fucking bother? If you do that, you do not learn,”
– Kate Winslet, V Magazine, 2011

It gets better after the cut.

The star hopes to continue challenging herself with her film parts.

“I hope I’m always learning something. So I won an Oscar. It’s amazing. I’ve got that for the rest of my life for a performance I am proud of. It nearly killed me. I am really proud of the film. That’s it, moving on.”

Kate is renowned for baring all in front of the camera. The 35-year-old star says although she may look comfortable, she rarely enjoys filming nude scenes.

“I hate it! Listen, make no mistake, I just get on it. I just go in and say ‘Oh f***, let’s do it,’ and Boom. If you complain about it or procrastinate it’s not going to go away,” she said.

“It’s a profoundly bizarre thing to do. As actors you talk about it all the time. You can literally be tangled in sheets, and you turn to the other actor and say ‘What the f*** are we doing?’ ‘Dear Mum, at work today I had so-and-so’s left n*t sack pressed against my cheek.’ It’s sort of unethical if you think about it in those terms.”
