I like to be out of my depth - that's when I learn the most.
— Jessie Buckley
'War and Peace' is about relationships: family relationships, loving relationships, relationships at war... it's a really young story as well.
I get asked a lot about being a woman within the industry and how difficult it is, and yeah, it is - but it's difficult for everybody... I'm not a 'burn-your-bra' feminist.
Sometimes you meet characters at certain points in your life and have a connection with them.
Filming a story set in a war zone in the '60s was such a treat, as it gave me so much scope to dive into.
I really value my anonymity and privacy.
Christmas in the Buckley household is hilarious - at the family dinner, we all have to do a song, no matter if you can sing in tune.
I think I'd make a good James Bond... I'm joking.
I had to be an adult very quickly and didn't have any friends.
At the end of the day, whether it's on film or on stage or for a crowd of however many at Kenwood House, my job is to make sure people have a good time and come away with a feeling and a story.
I've been incredibly fortunate to have so many people believe in me.
I love London, but I miss air; I miss space. My dream is to find a mountain where I can live.
The people who are inspiring and strong for me are the ones who acknowledge vulnerabilities.
I don't like to get too complacent. I like to give myself five panic attacks per project.
Always good to shake it up and do something different.
I did it all, singing, the harp, piano. But I was so shy, I'd wake up at six to practice piano because I didn't want anyone to hear me play. But then I'd do a big show in school where everyone would see me, and that was actually alright.
