On the surface, it's really easy to dismiss certain characters, but sometimes you find that the most interesting parts are disappointingly shallow. it's your job as an actress to pull that person apart, and work out why they act the way that they do.

More From Jessica Brown Findlay

Do not be critics, you people, i beg you. i was a critic and i wish i could take it all back because it came from a smelly and ignorant place in me, and spoke with a voice that was all rage and envy. do not dismiss a book until you have written one, and do not dismiss a movie until you have made one, and do not dismiss a person until you have met them. it is a f@*$%load of work to be open-minded and generous and understanding and forgiving and accepting, but christ, that is what matters. what matters is saying yes.
Book Creativity What Matters
Everything that comes together falls apart. everything. the chair i’m sitting on. it was built, and so it will fall apart. i’m gonna fall apart, probably before this chair. and you’re gonna fall apart. the cells and organs and systems that make you you—they came together, grew together, and so must fall apart. the buddha knew one thing science didn’t prove for millennia after his death: entropy increases. things fall apart.
Fall Cells Together
The ant's a centaur in his dragon world. pull down thy vanity, it is not man made courage, or made order, or made grace, pull down thy vanity, i say pull down. learn of the green world what can be thy place in scaled invention or true artistry, pull down thy vanity, paquin pull down! the green casque has outdone your elegance.

People ask, 'why would you cast yourself in your movie?' and, for me, it's more like an achievement that i am now not playing all the parts, you know? like i was for so long, in all my performances and a lot of my short movies. so, that's where i'm coming from, not out of a kind of actress-y sense of myself. i mean, i don't really see myself as an actress, but more from performance: this is how you make something. you do it yourself. you're in it and you write it. i think i keep doing it that way, 'cause it's my way. it's what makes me feel like i know how to do it.
Writing Mean Thinking
It's easy to be a bad ass, it's easy to act like a bad ass, easy to act like a tough guy, it's easy to be a diva, and it's easy to be self absorbed. the list goes on and on but to me, i always just find it more important to be nice and kind.
Nice Bad Ass Self
People get sick and sometimes they get better and sometimes they don't. and it doesn't matter if the sickness is cancer or if it's depression. sometimes the drugs work and sometimes they don't. sometimes the drugs work for a while and then they stop. sometimes the alternative stuff works and sometimes it doesn't. and sometimes you wonder if no outside interference makes any difference at all; if an illness is like a storm, if it simply has to run its course and, at the end of it, depending on how robust you are, you will be alive. or you will be dead.

I try to find the core values that are so fundamental that they transcend ethnic identity. that doesn't mean i run from it. i embrace african-american culture and i love it and embrace it, but it is a part of a human identity. so i'm always trying to make a larger human statement.

'sex and the city' was made to correct the myth that if you were single at a certain age, you were a leper. its four characters are heroes to a lot of women; they run around new york, or gotham - but they have fancy shoes instead of capes.
