It’’s very clear in this day and age that women are still being punished for being sexual creatures and that that punishment is seen as socially and culturally acceptable.

“I think I’ve specifically taken two roles in order to be the kind of female stereotype because I was just quite interested in it, but everything else, even the period films, even The Duchess, were all about a woman that doesn’t fit into the mold and is being constrained by it and trying to break out of it… The 1700s and the 1940s really are quite different, you know. I like exploring [female suppression] within period pieces because the clothes are literally so constricting. And you’ve got the class thing….” — Keira Knightley, for The Edit on Net-A-Porter (2014)
“The people who make movies, whether it’s directors or producers or money people, look for things that they can identify with, and if they’re all predominantly middle-aged white men, then what you see are things that middle-aged white men can identify with. And you don’t get anything for anybody else.”

"I am a feminist! It was so weird that it wasn’t being talked about, that nobody was allowed to say there’s an equality issue going on here. We’re so under-represented in every fucking walk of life. And to be honest, as much as you can blame Hollywood, it’s holding a mirror up to society. But it’s a good place to start."

A surprising confession: before I even turn on my dictaphone, after a day spent observing her in front of the camera, I like Keira Knightley enormously. I didn’t expect to like her so much. While I have admired her - aesthetically and professionally - I have never really warmed to her on screen or in interviews, so I didn’t expect I would fall for her to such an extent in real life.
“I didn’t want to cast people who looked like each other though. What I did rather, was to find mannerisms that they all shared.”
(Joe Wright, Director)
