I had a non-existent knowledge of Queen Victoria's early years. Like everyone else, I thought of her as an old lady dressed in black. My mom had told me about her, though, that she had a very loving relationship with Albert, that they had lots of kids, and that he died young.

It just proves good movies don't need 100 million dollars to be good.

I'm not much of a crier but it is mildly soul-destroying and exposing to do something physical that you are terrible at in front of other people.
Emily Blunt -
I'm such a diva on set.

I had to learn to dance for 'The Adjustment Bureau' and it was nearly impossible. I turned up with my knees knocking in my leotard and went home and cried my eyes out.
Emily Blunt -
I used to look like a deer in headlights on the red carpet. You step out of the car and it's bedlam. Everyone's got crazy eyes.
Emily Blunt -
Americans are a lot more open, of course. There's something more declamatory in the way you express emotions. It's a stereotype but it's true. British people can appear repressed in expressing emotions. Not very good at self-evaluating, or affirming situations, touching, anything like that.

It's sort of a meat market, the whole awards thing, and I don't think you can predict it anymore - who's going to like what you've done, if it's worthy or not. And hopefully, that's not why you make a film, because if you're distracted by that, or only striving for that, you don't do it justice.

It's quite hard to faze me. I'm fairly un-shockable.
Emily Blunt -
There is absolutely, 100 percent, a light at the end of the tunnel for anyone who stutters.
Emily Blunt -
A lot of period dramas can appear quite arch to most people, stuffy.
Emily Blunt -
It's always a little mind-boggling to realize that these famous actors know who I am.
Emily Blunt -
I'm Sudafed-ed up, but it's alright because I'm having to do this rather sultry scene, so maybe it's OK that my voice is three octaves lower.
Emily Blunt -
I find it quite hard to sum up my relationship in a sound bite. I feel that it trivializes it for other people's pleasure. It's an adventure.

If you're in America a lot, it's easy to get into playing American. All of it, the sounds, the energies, all very different. But it's really hard to do the accent. I tend to try and stay in it all day, which is the only way I can manage it.
Emily Blunt -
It's nothing to be ashamed of to have a stutter.
Emily Blunt -
I do strive to find projects that are trying to carve out some new space. I enjoy projects that leap away from the crowd a little bit.
Emily Blunt -
I think it is nice for people to appreciate a slow-burning, beautiful story that makes you feel good when it is over.
Emily Blunt -
People just want to know something, anything. It's all the stuff you never want to talk about, the private stuff.

I'm about to do my second Bikram yoga class in Anchorage, Alaska. It's the only way to stay warm. I've got to get into shape. I've been eating nothing but fish and chips.
