“I was desperate to do it [The Crucible], phoning all the time, asking, ‘What’s going on?’ I was obsessively jealous that it was always going to be Winona [Ryder] as Abigail, but she did it wonderfully, even if that was my dream role. On Oscar night for Sense And Sensibility, this huge bouquet of roses arrived with a note saying, ‘Good luck tonight. I think you’re wonderful. Much love, Winona Ryder’. It was so sweet and lovely, I was like, ‘My God, Winona Ryder sent me flowers!’”
