Emily Watson

But I guess, you know, as Shakespeare said it, your job is to hold a mirror up to nature.

And, you know, you just try and tell stories as truthfully as you can and you go to places that you need to to do that.

And I find walking, it's the rhythm of, you know, like all those therapeutic things that have rhythm, drumming, EMDR, all those kind of things.

Yeah, just walking is something I do pretty much every day.

Yes, I think there are.

They are like friends, you know, they're sort of people you've got to know over your life.

Dreams, they're like, you know, very strong memories.

But you have to put a distance.

You can't let them dictate your responses to your real life.

You know, you have to let them go and put them on the shelf and get a distance from them.

I'd like to take credit for that path, but I get less and less sure of my kind of moral rectitude as I get older.

I just think I've been lucky.

You do something that gets noticed in that way early on.

And there are still to this day, I meet people, filmmakers who say,

Breaking the Waves is the reason I'm a director.

It made me.

And that has a currency that's just lasted.

It's kept me in knickers, you know, for a very long time.

What's next?

Your seventh choice today.
