It's such a male-dominated industry. You can be a feminist, it's just difficult because it sometimes comes back at you.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

I have this attitude to life ...

I have this attitude to life that is not to take anything too seriously and not worry about anything, and when I met him I wasn't too nervous and I was being myself.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

My mother, she had a very goo...

My mother, she had a very good attitude toward money. I'm very grateful for the fact that we had to learn to save. I used to get like 50 pence a week, and I'd save it for like five months. And then I'd spend it on Christmas presents. I'd save up like eight pounds. It's nothing, but we did that.

My family was never cultural ...

My family was never cultural in that we never went to see plays, my mum wasn't very into films.

I've never been to the opera; I've only seen opera on DVD.

I don't want to be about the ...

I don't want to be about the way I look - my body, my hair, my makeup, all those boring things.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

I always thought I was going ...

I always thought I was going to end up an old spinster, with my cats and fur coats.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

I'm always surprised at what ...

I'm always surprised at what I actually end up doing because I don't have a strategy or a game plan, especially now that I'm making my own choices.

It's difficult for a young girl like me. Because there's a certain time for young actresses, which is like a really juicy period when all the parts are love interests and young heroines. Of course, there's always work for men whatever age they are.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

The industry is quite chauvin...

The industry is quite chauvinistic generally. Expectations of women, girls, what they should look like, how they should be, what they should say, what they should wear, how their hair should be, what colour their skin should be.

I am terrible at video games ...

I am terrible at video games and I am really competitive. And if I am not the best at something, I go absolutely crazy!

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

I wouldn't change a thing in ...

I wouldn't change a thing in my own life, but I'd like to go back in time anyway though, just to some sort of eras that I wish I'd lived in - like the '60s. I'd love to have been in London in the '60s, partying away.

When I watch myself in movies I go, 'My God.'

I'm looking at working with people I get on with, that respect me, that don't just see me as a piece of ass. Which I have experienced as well. I've nearly walked off very big films before, and I would, because I don't want that in my life. I want to enjoy the work I do.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

I've done about four deaths in films now, and I think it's quite good because then it's sort of a memorable moment in the film.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

I grew up on Bond, and it is ...

I grew up on Bond, and it is part of my culture, especially in Britain. Just to be known as a Bond girl is an incredible thing for me, because some of my favorite actresses have been Bond girls, like Diana Rigg and Honor Blackman, and they have continued to work and be brilliant. I am honored and flattered to be called that, even though I don't really think my character is Bond-girly, but I'm still going to be labeled as a Bond girl, which is completely brilliant.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

There is one scene where he is kissing up my back. It is really sexy and I didn't know he was going to do it. He started doing it and in the film you see me saying, whew, and that wasn't acting, that was really me thinking, whew, oh my goodness Daniel Craig is kissing my back! I really did. I had to stop and remind myself that I was playing a character and I was acting in a film.

I've nearly walked off very big films before, and I would, because I don't want that in my life. I want to enjoy the work I do.

In London I'm out and about all the time. I walk everywhere, so people do recognise me and they've probably seen me before so they're not bothered anymore. But I think that's a good thing because if you try and remain mysterious people are surprised when they see you. With me, I think they're just bored of seeing me - but that suits me just fine because I like to live as much of a normal life as I can. That's why I love living in London. People are very respectful of your privacy. If they see you having a coffee in a coffee shop, they're not going to interrupt you.

Gemma Arterton 56 quotes

When I go home, everyone's very proud. I get recognized the most when I go back to my hometown, but it's in a really sweet way. They're just very proud and supportive.
