I want to pick good projects, I want to work with great directors and try not to put too much pressure on myself and just read things for the story and recognize when I’m drawn to something for the right reasons and try to maintain some sanity. Sanity would be good. I’d like to have a little sanity! Rachel McAdams Read Quote
A friend of mine had this great theory about the Teletubbies, that it’s preparing us for being mindless. And getting us ready for living in an underground world. That’s why the scenery is so flat. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
I do have a side of me that would just love to be stuck in the woods and have to stick it out and be really resourceful. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
If I hurt someone, if I were to accidentally poke someone’s eye out, I would laugh. And then I’d say, ‘I’m sorry, I really do feel bad,’ but then I’m on the floor rolling. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
You know, I have some issues. But I just love to play different characters all the time, and I try not to repeat myself too much. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
I think love is the through line and it’s universal and it doesn’t matter what period of time, time or place, or people, that’s something we all connect to. That’s the thin thread that I think keeps it altogether. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
I did do some Shakespeare on film, it’s really difficult. It’s really interesting, because I was doing a series in Canada called ‘Slings and Arrows’ and it was about a company based around the Stratford Festival. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
I love those preliminary conversations about who a character is. You try on wigs, shoes and clothes. It’s preferable when it’s not about looking pretty. It can get a little dull to just be cute. We talk about things like, maybe my character can’t afford these Christian Louboutins. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
I’m very silly as a person, but quality silliness on-screen has more of an art to it. Harrison Ford, whom I was in ‘Morning Glory’ with, has mastered that dry funny better than anyone. Rachel McAdams Read Quote
