00:00 Emma, what a film. First of all, how proud are you of it? Because there is so much to
00:06 be proud of with it.
00:08 I'm - I mean, I think when it comes to yourself, or at least for me, when it comes to myself,
00:13 that's never going to be the operative word in seeing a film, but I'm extremely, extremely
00:17 proud of Yorgos and all of these department heads and the cast. Yorgos had this for 12
00:26 years by now, and so everything that he put into it and that he orchestrated to make this
00:32 all come together in the sort of fantastical way that it is, is really amazing to see.
00:37 I loved the Bella when she was first created. I watched it and I was like, "Oh, to go back
00:42 to being that innocent." How liberating is it to act with no manners? Don't like something,
00:50 spit it out.
00:51 It's amazing. Or throw something at someone or just say that you have to punch a baby
00:57 because they're crying. Whatever it is, there's so many things that - she doesn't punch the
01:00 baby, but you know. There's so much that is completely liberating and freeing about Bella,
01:08 and I think that's the major reason why I fell in love with her so much, is she just
01:12 takes everything in in this extremely curious and joyous way, and it's - yeah, it's pretty
01:18 great.
01:19 It's a little bit prudish, however, but I find you conduct yourself with such a - you
01:25 exude such a confidence in everything you do, so I'm curious - to the outside world,
01:30 I don't know.
01:31 To the outside world. Yes, okay, alright.
01:33 I was curious whether there was anything that you were kind of apprehensive about going
01:37 into filming this.
01:39 Sure. I mean, I think I'm always a bit apprehensive about doing it at all because you don't know
01:44 if you will be able to kind of live up to a character, but Bella especially, I think
01:52 I was like, all I want to do - I just love this character so deeply, I just want to do
01:56 her justice, and you know, that was the biggest apprehension, I think. Not any of the, you
02:03 know, elements that you might think, really, because I knew that all of that was necessary
02:07 in order to truly tell her story in the way that she - you know, she doesn't have shame.
02:12 She's not judging herself, her body, any of that. So I needed to shed mine too, and it
02:18 was incredibly freeing to do that. But yeah, I think the only apprehension was just not
02:27 doing her justice.
02:28 But you did, so.
02:30 Oh, thanks.
02:31 Great job with that, great job.
02:32 That's subjective, but thank you.
02:34 Well, listen, we're only hearing good things, so that has to be wonderful. And also, I loved
02:40 seeing all of God's creations running around. Did you have a favourite, and if you were
02:45 to create your own mix, what would you want it to be?
02:49 I loved all the animals. And then I've answered this question once before, and it was like
02:53 silly in the moment, but the more I think about it, I still feel the same. I would make
02:57 a dog and a dog. Just two different dogs.
03:01 Any specific breeds?
03:02 I love a golden retriever, and I think it would be funny if a golden retriever's head
03:07 was on kind of like a, I don't know, like a mastiff spot. There's a huge dog, but two
03:15 different dogs. Although, they do do that, the crossbreed dogs. So I could probably just
03:21 find one of these on a rescue website.
03:23 Maybe, exactly. But it was just, everything about it, it's so wonderful to watch, genuinely.
03:29 So good luck with it when it comes out.
03:31 Thank you so much.
