Sometimes I bite off a fingernail to use as a toothpick. Nasty.

New Mexico was such a strange place; it was like filming on Mars.

I'm so not a celebrity.
Kelly Macdonald -
I don't think I've been shy in the past. Young and uncomfortable, maybe. But shy? It has become this annoying term that I've been lumbered with.
Kelly Macdonald -
It's really great if people actually want to see something that you've made and you've put a lot of effort into. And that doesn't always happen, and there's not always a rhyme or reason.
Kelly Macdonald -
The people on programmes like 'Made in Chelsea' just want to be celebrities. It's so depressing. No proper actor has that as a goal. I'm striving for longevity in my career.
Kelly Macdonald -
Being a parent is such a difficult business; you don't always get things right. And also, you don't want to be a perfect parent... You need people to be human, and part of it is imperfection.

What I'm normally associated with are darker, more brooding roles.

It felt like a series of coincidences and luck that I ended up getting the part in 'Trainspotting,' but it's been an incredible journey since then. Every now and then, I sit and really think about it, and it blows my mind. I have to stop because I don't want my brain to implode.

There was nobody in my family who knew anything about the film industry. I'm from the west of Scotland. It's not exactly a mecca for filmmaking. I think I saw Rab C. Nesbitt in Asda once, but that was about it.
