Tilda Swinton (as Martha)

And also about surviving things of all kinds, surviving torturous relationships with our parents or surviving a long absence from a loved lover. It's always about overcoming and somehow scaring away the things that frighten us ourselves. And what they say, embrace the tiger, return to the mountain. That's very much his attitude to life. He is pretty fearless, I would say.

It was a profound blessing, Terry, because when he first sent me the script, I did have to double check with him who he was asking me to play. And when he, because as I say, I've been in what I call the Ingrid position so often in my life, and thankfully so, it is a... A great privilege to occupy that seat.

Ingrid is the witness. Ingrid is the name of the person who Julianne Moore plays. And when he told me that he wanted me to play Martha, I remember this sense of relief because it was the snow that I didn't know, because it was going to be a new track. But it was a snow that I'd wondered about for so long, having sat on the other side of the chasm, as I kind of think of it.

And I'd heard so many loved ones and friends saying to me, it's so much worse for you than me. I'm in the hot seat. I'm going down, but you're having to bear this. And so to test that was a very interesting project. And it did bear out, I have to say. There is something, I'm not suggesting that, and I don't want to be too grandiose about this. I mean, this was a drama that we were figuring out.

And yet, with a couple of exceptions, that fear dissipated and was replaced with something really inspiring, which was the essential acceptance of the inevitable. I mean, this is the thing that this film is really about. You say with accuracy that it's about suffering. And of course, technically, it is about dying. But it's really more than anything, Terry, about living.

It's about someone who has made the decision to live right up to the wire, go on living, and for that to be the banner that she's carrying.

And it's about the interest of life and an interest in life and about someone who, by the way, sets her cap at investing her last months, her last weeks in the three things that I've always thought were the things that we'll always see us through, friendship, art and nature. And so it is so full of, packed with energy and you referenced the colours which are always there in Pedro's work
