00:04In terms of career, you know, I'd say that everything changed really after Titanic and in really great ways.
00:12You know, freedom of choice, that was the main thing, to be honest with you.
00:15And now that I have children, that has actually been the most extraordinary thing that did come out of the
00:20success of that film.
00:23And, you know, it definitely, I think, taught me how to remain instinctive and true to myself when it came
00:30to choices.
00:32Because it would have been one thing to get swept up in the wave of that film and to have
00:37done everything under the sun.
00:38But I didn't do that.
00:40You know, I tried very hard to be true to myself and to actually do the things that I thought
00:46would be challenging for me so that I could continue to learn and to grow as an actor.
00:50Because I wasn't ready to really be thrust into the spotlight in that way, I think, because I was only
00:5621.
00:58And, you know, luckily for me, you know, I was able to retain that sense of steadiness and determination.
01:06And, you know, I think it's worked.
01:17Myrtle Dunwich.
01:18You grew up.
01:19You got old.
01:21Myrtle Dunwich is back.
01:23I haven't seen her since she was a kid.
01:25Well, now she turned out.
01:26And you've spoken very passionately about body image in Hollywood and really affects children your daughter's age.
01:31Is that something that you look at when you're looking at film roles as well?
01:35Do you kind of go for parts that represent women in a certain way or a strong way?
01:39I don't particularly set out to find those types of roles.
01:42And actually, sometimes it's really interesting to play vulnerable women.
01:45You know, we all have the capacity to be vulnerable.
01:46And that's a very important human emotion as well.
01:49I just honestly set out to be truthful, truthful to the roles that I'm asked to play.
01:53And even in something like The Dressmaker, which is a comedy, you know, it was very important to stick to
01:58the truth of the characters and who they were.
02:00And it's the circumstances that they're in that are amusing, not necessarily always the things that are coming out of
02:05their mouths.
02:05So, yeah.
02:07I reckon you came home for one of two things.
02:09Revenge or me.
02:12Gertrude Pratt.
02:13The dance is Saturday night.
02:14A dress can't change anything.
02:16Watch and learn, Gertrude.
02:17Watch and learn.
02:20I can make you the most striking girl in the room.
02:23It's called The Dressmaker.
02:24And actually, I almost wish, in a way, it was called something else.
02:29Because The Dressmaker does not imply huge comedy.
02:32It does not imply unexpected tragedy.
02:35And it's all of those things.
02:37It's got a kind of a tone that is more in the world of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert, as
02:42opposed to any classical period film.
02:44So, yeah, go and be surprised.
02:50Stunning.
02:51You can transform people.
02:54Use it.
02:55Kill it on itch.
02:57I remember that day.
02:59She saw the whole thing.
03:01She murdered him.
03:02She's cursed.
03:03I didn't do it.
03:04It's just a pack of lies.
03:08They'll never forgive me for that boy's death.
03:10You're wasted here.
03:14Stop it, Jar Jar.
03:15With what?
03:16Sitting?
03:21Why didn't you tell me?
03:25You don't scam me, Tilly Dunnage.
03:29Tilly Dunnage, you've enriched my life.
03:33I reckon you can make some bloke pretty happy.
03:35Bye.
03:36Bye.
03:36Bye.
03:37Bye.
03:37Bye.
03:37Bye.
03:38Bye.
03:39Bye.
03:39Bye.
