You know that scene in 'Runaway Bride' when Julia Roberts puts on the amazing wedding dress and looks at herself in the mirror and goes, 'Swish, swish'? I loved that moment so much when I was a little girl.
Quote by -Lily James
I Googled myself, and I saw some nice things and some not-so-nice things. I've learned that that stuff isn't real, and it doesn't exist unless you look at it.
Quote by -Lily James
I love London, but I love traveling, and I don't think I'll be here forever. Possibly, I'd like to move to New York and do a play in New York.
Quote by -Lily James
I thought it'd be interesting to play an off-centre character who doesn't have to be pretty.
Quote by -Lily James
No one looks twice at me when they're around, and 'Cinderella' has made no difference. And I know that isn't going to change.
Quote by -Lily James
I remember meeting the princesses at Disney World and getting their autographs.
Quote by -Lily James
I feel like, sometimes, characters that are just good and nice can seem boring or uninteresting.
Quote by -Lily James
With corsets, it's interesting when you put them on, realizing that's what women actually wore. They're just so constricting.
Quote by -Lily James
I saw this cool interview with Amy Adams from when she did 'Enchanted' and played a princess, and when kids came up to her with no make-up and ripped jeans on, she said, 'I'm off duty. I'm an off-duty princess', and I thought that was quite sweet.
Quote by -Lily James
It's pretty disabling sometimes, the terror of not living up. My expectations are the worst.
Quote by -Lily James
The greatest thing is that usually the auditions you think are bad are the ones you get.
Quote by -Lily James
I think it's so important to be healthy and confident and natural. And not put too much stress on trying to be thin - I don't get the thin, thin thing at all.
Quote by -Lily James
People talk a lot about, 'You're a Disney princess! You're Cinderella!' and this and that. But for me, it's all about the fact that I worked with Cate Blanchett and was directed by Kenneth Branagh. That's the 'Cinderella' story for me.
Quote by -Lily James
I love putting on a red lip. I don't do it so much for events - somehow, I don't seem to get it right - but when I just go to the pub or to a restaurant or something, I just put a red lip on.
Quote by -Lily James
I loved all the princess films, and I grew up with them, and I think it's really cool how they've changed over the years - how the princesses have become more positive role models right up until 'Frozen.'
Quote by -Lily James
I want to do more theater, which allows you to take bigger risks and experiment.
Quote by -Lily James
Growing up, I was always prancing around and singing... and I just never really stopped.
Quote by -Lily James
It took me a while to warm to the '20s costumes on 'Downton.' I love it when women accentuate their curves, and that era was all about hiding them. The shapes they wore then were in tune with female empowerment. Cutting off their hair and hiding their busts was a way of saying, 'We're equal to men!'
Quote by -Lily James
It's so hard coming out of drama school to claim your right to be taken seriously and even get auditions.
Quote by -Lily James
I used to go to musicals every birthday - that was my birthday present. We'd go to London, me and my two brothers and mum and dad. I think I saw 'Mamma Mia' about five times.
Quote by -Lily James
I'm learning a lot about how to be one of the 'good' actors. You'd hope that it's natural to be a good person, and kind, but I'm learning how to deal with long, sometimes boring days.
Quote by -Lily James
My dad lived on Sunset Boulevard for a couple of years as a waiter, and he said he'd do a different character every time somebody sat down, just to get some practice.
Quote by -Lily James
I think I feel most like a princess when I'm sort of bursting with happiness and love, so whether that would be, like, with my boyfriend or my family or at a really fun party - just when you're full of life.
Quote by -Lily James
At drama school, we were taught to write down your dreams and carry them around in your wallet with you, and they'll come true, but I didn't do that.
Quote by -Lily James
For girls growing up, sometimes I think they get the wrong idea for what women should look like.
Quote by -Lily James
Boarding school in Tring was a bit of a bubble that burst when I went to Hackney to go to drama school.
Quote by -Lily James
I think it's probably best to work out in the morning to get it out of the way. My ultimate top tip is to drag yourself, even if you have to roll yourself out of your bed and in to a sit-up - it's really not that bad once you start.
Quote by -Lily James
When the board games came out of the cupboard when I was a kid, I had to beat my two brothers every time.
Quote by -Lily James
I don't have an exact moment when I decided I wanted to be an actress - it kind of was just really a part of my growing up.
Quote by -Lily James
I treated myself to a £700 Chloe bag after one of my first acting jobs. Then my friends pointed out that, for the same money, I could buy a flight to India. So I took it back.
