I really don’t mind what people assume about me. I really think that my brain is my private thing. I don’t need the approval of people. I don’t need people to think I’m intelligent. And I’m not that intelligent. Alice Eve Read Quote
My dad says that when I was two or three I used to go out dressed as a different character every day. I remember thinking it was perfectly normal to wear different coloured shoes and carry a pink umbrella. But now I’ve got a goddaughter of that age; I realise it’s not normal at all.

I do get a lot of facials because I think that when you don’t extract, your pores inevitably fill up more. I believe that facials keep your pores smaller. Alice Eve Read Quote
The Chinese say that having two homes is the way to madness. I’m not mad, but I definitely wish Hollywood would move to Trafalgar Square. But the life of an actor is a life of movement, isn’t it? Alice Eve Read Quote
I think that there have definitely been points when I’ve had to fight to move my career in a different direction. I think, 2012, I did a few movies that touched on a darker side, and those are movies I’d been wanting to make and stories I’d been wanting to tell for a while. So I think it definitely takes work to move genres. Alice Eve Read Quote
Everyone’s parents were famous actors at my school, pretty much! I think I went to school with Paris Hilton when I was three. That’s what L.A. is, though – it’s an industry town. You go to school with kids and you think, ‘Well that’s normal, they make movies.’ Alice Eve Read Quote
In film, the camera can get an array of shots so the audience can see the emotion the character is giving off. Using close-ups on the character’s face really helps get the message across. On stage, you can’t do that. But the stage has that live feeling that you can’t get anywhere else because the audience is right there. Alice Eve Read Quote
I did literature at university, so I had a real relationship with poetry, but they don’t make many films about the world of a poet. Alice Eve Read Quote
My dad’s always been a famous actor, so I’ve grown up with that, and with the lifestyle. In a way, I think I thrive on the insecurity that comes with it. Not in my private life – I like to believe that my friendships and my relationships are strong. Alice Eve Read Quote
