I think this yellow-blonde wig is pathetic.
Here are some excerpts from the interview that Eva did with Yahoo. The interview is just okay but extremely lengthy. I literally wanted to take a nap while going through it.
“I think I confuse people. I have a dark side and I also have this very playful and provocative sensibility - it depends on my mood,’ Green explains. ‘I have a lot of insecurities and so to protect myself I often project this confident air and sometimes people think I’m being cold or arrogant because of this. I would rather just relax and be my natural ironic self and I’m working on that! (Laughs) Maybe I should do a comedy instead of playing all these dark characters I’m drawn to.”
She seems like a confident person but she has mentioned about these insecurities a couple of times in this interview. But what I couldn’t get is: what does acting got to do with how you project yourself when you are with people in real life? They get confused. Okay. I don’t think working in a comedy rather than playing dark character could help it.
In her latest movie Dark Shadows, she has played a lusty sorceress. The story line seems good. She is obsessively in love with Johnny Depp whom she turns into a vampire after he falls in love with another woman. When he reawakens, he rejoins his family descendants but this witch doesn’t leave him in peace.
And yeah she is pretty excited about playing Angelique.
“But this character is one of the best roles I’ve ever played. I got fucking lucky with this film and being able to work with Tim Burton who such a genius...So playing Angelique is like a gift from Heaven.”
Eva Green too has been a shy person. Maybe she has been honest or maybe she’s just bluffing, I don’t know. Something is not impressive about this answer. She’s making it up. This entire thing about being a ghost that is wandering around & is unable to connect with this world sounds fake & made up.
“I’m very shy. As a child, I was happiest when it would rain because I could hide behind an umbrella. I also had a terrible time in school because I was so shy and fearful of everything. Even though I’ve worked on quite a few films now and met so many people I still have this chronic sense of insecurity in certain social situations. It’s a dilemma for me. I think I have a good sense of humour and I love to laugh, but I have to be in a situation where I can relax for that side of me to come out. I tend to retreat into my own little world and go to the same places and see the same friends. I often feel like I don’t really belong anywhere. I sometimes think I’m like a ghost who’s wandering around and unable to connect with the world.”
And just like so many people out there, work has been the solution.
“I suffer from stress and the only real thing which cures my anxiety is work. Work helps me focus and distract me from some of the nonsense that I think about when I’m on my own and feeling insecure at times.”
I have met so many people who say this thing. They work more & more, so that they stay away from tensions in real life. I wonder how do they meet their real self when they are all alone. Do they even meet anyone or is there no one?
Her movie Dreamers created controversy & everyone was just talking about nudity.
“People made such a fuss when The Dreamers came out. Sex was a theme, but there was more to it. I remember that the nudity and sex was the only thing the journalists wanted to talk about at the time even though that was only one aspect to a much broader theme of liberation and rebellion. And then I saw a lot of pictures of me naked [on the Internet] - oh my God. This was terrible. I love the movie, but now I know that if I do a nude scene that people will talk about it. I always feel like I have to prove myself. I want to be taken seriously.”
She’s different from Keira Knightley who didn’t get tired talking about her spanking scene. Anyhow, good to know that she wants to be taken seriously. She’s a pretty okay actor…nothing out of this world but I think she’s over-rated. Anyhow, she's a good-looking woman & this wig is the main reason the pics aren't that great I suppose.
This interview was very, very lengthy & tiring.And now I've got a headache...
