Start with familiar fairy tales or Bible stories or old folk tales or ancient myths and legends. You can tell them straight, or you can add your own twists.

I knew that he was directing it and I had a day off in my shooting schedule. I got on a plane - Fernando was in London and he was seeing British actresses and I was, 'Oh my God, I've got to meet him?' I managed to get to London and back in 24 hours? I had an hour with him? I think I went in there a bit like a hurricane of passion? I was the first person that he met, but then he wanted to meet everybody, so he met a bunch of people and I was back in LA dying. And so then I wrote him a very impassioned letter and then finally I got the role? Rachel Weisz More Rachel Weisz Quotes 0
