Herald Sun interview

DRAMA and thrills have left Gillian Anderson with a taste for comedy.
GILLIAN Anderson shot to fame as Special Agent Dana Scully over nine seasons of The X-Files. Since leaving the cult sci-fi hit nearly a decade ago, the Emmy and Golden Globe winning actor has shifted effortlessly between the stage (she was nominated for an Olivier award for her West End role in Ibsen's A Doll's House), TV (nominated for a BAFTA for Lady Dedlock in Dickens' Bleak House) and film (two X-Files films, and The Last King of Scotland). The US-born, England-raised actor lives in London with her three children and partner Mark Griffiths. She visited Australia with co-star Rowan Atkinson this week to promote their film, James Bond spoof Johnny English Reborn.

What was the appeal of Johnny English Reborn for you - was it working with Rowan Atkinson?

It was a mixture of Rowan and the thought of playing the head of MI7. It sounded like a really cool thing to do. I could also see the potential in the script of what they were aiming for and the idea of it essentially being a James Bond with humour.

Are you a Bond fan?

I think I am a Bond fan like any other. I have all the Bond films but I haven't seen one in a really long time. And if you really look at them, there are really only one or two really good ones. I think Goldfinger is one of them. The others are really just cheesy, bordering on parody.

All the Bond parallels in the film place you squarely in the shoes of Dame Judi Dench. Did you go back and watch what she had done as M?

I didn't, because it's clear that the two characters are quite different. But in thinking of her as M, I realised how much power she has as an actress to be able to basically whisper and allude to so much power over everybody. She doesn't raise her voice at all. It's really quite straight and laser-like. I found that fascinating.

Am I right in thinking you are both attached to a movie with the unlikely title of The Curse of the Buxom Strumpet?

Yes. I don't know what's going to happen with that. It's a zombie film and that title is alluding to a ship. But we will see. If they get their financing together and we are both still available, then maybe. It's quite funny.

Is there a big difference between Rowan Atkinson on and off set?

There is a big difference when the camera is actually rolling to the Rowan Atkinson off-set. Especially if there are physical gags involved. Very often it will be discussed, but he won't necessarily go through the motions of it because it's exhausting and he very much saves himself for when the camera is rolling. He is not one of those actors or comedians who spills out all over the place and you get it in spades before the take. It's quite disconcerting when you are talking on an intellectual and technical level and all of a sudden the camera rolls and this master of comedy pops up out of nowhere.

Did you enjoy the comedy aspect?

Actually a good portion of the theatre I have done has been comedy and a fifth to a seventh of the X-Files were comedy episodes. I have done a couple of comedy films but I would actually like to get to be more funny. This is a straight character to Rowan's comedy and I am very much interested in getting to be the comedian because I enjoy it very much.

You came very close with what you did on The Simpsons, but The X-Files is surely ripe for its own spoof?

We actually talked about it for a while. There has always been the idea that every few years we would come back and do another picture and within that there was always a desire that at some point we come back and do a spoof. It may be too late now but I love the idea of it. There is so much stuff we could pull from. There is one episode called Bad Blood which is actually one of my favourites and we kind of take the p--- out of ourselves in that and it was so much fun to do.

I think a lot of people were hoping the second X-Files movie would answer a lot more questions. Were you happy?

I think that if we were to do a third one, it would answer a lot more of those questions and maybe also have something to do with aliens, which is ultimately what people want to see. David and I have been very vocal about the fact that if Chris or the studio were to come to us to do another one, we would do it. Recently Chris announced that it was likely to be in the works but I have no idea what that means or at what stage it is or who is writing it or whether Fox is even interested.

Do you miss Scully?

I miss her when I am together with David and Chris and we are reminiscing about it, or somebody is a particularly big fan and brings something up, but I don't think about her on a daily basis. I think I am more appreciative of all that she was now than I was even at the time.

Why does the show continue to strike such a chord?

I have no idea. I really don't know. There are new generations of fans out there, which always surprises me. I get letters from people who say 'I'm 12 and I just started watching the series and I am so glad it's out there. That's cool.

You are becoming quite the Dickens specialist too, after Bleak House, and now you are playing Miss Havisham in Great Expectations. How do you go about breathing new life into these revered literary characters?

When I read a script I generally know on the first read whether that person is inside me somewhere, and that was a case where I got her. It's my version of her, but there is something inside that went 'Oh, I can do this. I get who this is'. Sometimes I read stuff and I just don't get it - it doesn't resonate. I get very specific images and vocal mannerisms, and then it's just down to hoping they come together in the right way and other people agree you are on the right track. When I showed up to the set for Great Expectations I hadn't really discussed that much with the director about the direction I was taking her, and it didn't actually occur to me until the second day that he could have said 'What the f--- are you doing?' I just really hope it's good. It looks like it will be, but you never know.

You keep returning to the stage. What is it you get from theatre that you don't get anywhere else?

It terrifies me. I hate it as much as I love it and I only decide to do something every few years because of that. Along the way there is at least 100 times where I go 'Why did I subject myself to this again?' But at the same time there is a part of me that is fed in a completely different way to anything else in that live process with an audience and discovering stuff in the moment and the danger of it.

Change agent



A far cry from the cool Dana Scully who made her famous, Gillian Anderson speaks with Michael Lallo about her new film, her transatlantic upbringing and how acting saved her.

Gillian Anderson was backstage at Wembley Stadium, waiting to address the crowd at a memorial concert for Diana, when Victoria Beckham walked past. Having noticed that Beckham's collar was up, she reached out and flattened it, thinking she was doing the fashion-conscious Posh a favour.

''And you should have seen the look she shot me,'' Anderson laughs, burying her face in her hands. ''Other than the fact I destroyed her look, I also freaked her out because I did it from behind. Now, I try not to be helpful any more, especially where fashion is concerned.''

Sitting by a top-floor window of Melbourne's plush Langham Hotel, Anderson looks vastly different from Agent Scully, the X-Files character who propelled her to stardom in the mid-1990s. Gone is the flame-red bob, replaced by long, blonde locks. And in contrast to Scully's restrained demeanour, Anderson is expressive and quick to laugh, her American accent tinged with a British lilt.


She suspects that had she stayed in the US after The X-Files ended, she might have been typecast and offered only ''special agent'' roles. Instead, she returned to her childhood home of London, where she was cast in various stage productions and a BBC adaption of Charles Dickens's Bleak House.

''It's very easy for actors in the UK to switch between TV, film and theatre,'' she says. ''You wouldn't lose any credibility at all if you did a BBC drama after a Mike Leigh film. In the States, I think it's getting easier but it has taken a long time.''

Yet her latest role is that of Pamela Thornton, head of British MI7 in the Rowan Atkinson comedy Johnny English Reborn. With a stiff upper lip, Anderson plays the ''straight man'' to Atkinson's bumbling James Bond wannabe.

''The idea of being the head of anything cracks me up because I still feel like I'm 17 years old,'' she says.

''I also felt it was a challenge to do a role that was close to what I'd done before but to make it as different as possible.''

Not surprisingly, Anderson nails her character's British accent. She also finds that her intonation and vocabulary change depending on her location: in America, for instance, she goes to the bathroom, while in England, she visits the loo. But as she explained to TV host Jay Leno, her shifting accent is unintentional and any effort to alter it only makes her self-conscious.

Cultural identity has long been an issue for Anderson. As a child, her British classmates - even though she spoke like them - branded her a Yank on account of her American parents. When she moved to Michigan with her family at the age of 11, however, she became known as ''The British Kid''.

''It was a very Republican, Amway-driven town,'' she says. ''Everyone loved the way I talked and they gave me gum and wanted to know me. And, as children do, I took advantage of that attention and started bribing them for their gum. But after a while, I felt very lonely. I think I realised those friendships were based on something that wasn't real.''

A rebellious teen, she got a mohawk hairstyle, planted a pig's eye in a teacher's desk and was arrested trying to glue shut the locks on the doors of her high school. Then she discovered acting.

''I auditioned for a play at a community theatre and was cast,'' she says. ''Even at the rehearsal, I pretty much realised I was in the place I needed to be.

''I remember being on stage and people coming up afterwards giving me positive feedback. I wanted more of that. There wasn't much else I was good at but I actually knew how to do this.''

Anderson could, however, discover her next role is on Australian TV - as an unwitting participant on Border Security.

''I did smuggle some chilli chocolate into the country,'' she whispers, leaning forward. ''I have some in my suitcase upstairs … but don't print that until I leave Australia in a couple of days. It's illegal to bring food with you and I don't want to get arrested.''

The Guardian Interview.

This much I know: Gillian AndersonThe actor, 43, on Britishness, growing older and the importance of being wrong

The older you get the less memory you have. I have trouble differentiating between what are childhood memories and what I may have seen in a photograph or been told about by my mum. Do I really remember lying in a hammock on a beach in Puerto Rico when I was a year old?

I feel both British and American. After spending a year in Puerto Rico, my family moved to London. I spent my formative years in the UK, only moving back to Michigan when I was 11. I was initially excited about the adventure; I hadn't taken into account just how alien American culture would be and how much my "Britishness" would set me apart – but it did.

The X-Files went on for a long time – nine years – but it now feels like such a long time ago. I look back on those days with awe and gratitude. I didn't notice how huge it was at the time – we were shielded from the outside world while filming. The only time the paparazzi would show up was if there was a scandal – me getting a divorce, or David [Duchovny] dating Winona Ryder.

I have mellowed over the years. I always needed to be right, but I'm now more accepting of being wrong. It's taken a very long time to admit that, as most of my family will attest.

I pick and choose what I read about myself because of how deeply it affects me. Frank Rich of the New York Times wrote such an unfavourable review of The House of Mirth, and of me, that it literally made me want to stop acting. I was only 27, and my feet weren't as firmly underneath me as they are today.

I fear waking up with regrets. The idea that I might be doing something now that I'm unaware of, that I will have bottomless regret about in the future, keeps me up at night.

My mantra at the moment is: "What you are is what you have been, what you will be is what you do now" – I have no idea where it comes from, but I try and think of it on a regular basis to motivate me.

It was easy to have children, but it's not easy to be a good parent. I was 26 when I had my daughter, and I would have been a very different person had she not come into my life. Her arrival grounded me with a certain responsibility. Had I not had her, I think I would have taken full advantage of being young and carefree.

The last time I cried was yesterday. My younger brother Aaron is dying, and I'm currently back at home with my family. It's an extraordinary time.

I've allowed myself to be happier. The past four years have taught me to lighten up. I've learned to get out of my own way and that it is OK to feel good.

I do have a sense of humour. I'm perceived as being a bit spiky and serious, but I've been misunderstood. When I started doing talk shows and interviews I felt so out of my depth that I didn't laugh or joke because I was petrified. It has taken me decades to get used to the whole nature of fame – to allow myself to be myself in public.

Gillian Anderson Moves From Timeless Dramas to Broad Comedy

Gillian Anderson has battled alien invaders, faced shadowy conspiracies, and played some of the most memorable women in literature. So, what intimidates her? Watching herself onscreen. "The first time I see something I'm in, it's very hard for me," she admits. "I've got one thing on my mind and one thing only: picking apart my performance." Fortunately, she recently had a second chance to see her new comedy, "Johnny English Reborn," and was able to enjoy it much more this time around. As the single-minded agent brought in to revamp MI-7, Anderson's character brings the bumbling secret agent Johnny English (Rowan Atkinson) out of retirement to wreak more havoc on the world. "I laughed during the entire thing," she says. "And all I could see were 50 adults in front of me, bending forward. I'm assuming it was laughter, unless there was something wrong with the popcorn."

Below, five other things you might not know about the "X-Files" star:

1. She finds co-star Atkinson 'very crushable.'

Though some might be immune to the sex appeal of Atkinson, best known for goofy characters such as "Mr. Bean," Anderson says she totally understands why some women find him attractive. "I think there's an aspect of him that is very sexy," she says. "When he plays sexy in this film, it's so contrary to the way you see him, it almost makes you uncomfortable. But both on-camera and in person, there is something incredibly sexy about him." She admits she may have a certain type. "My first big crush on a celebrity, other than the Bay City Rollers when I was a youngster, was Buster Keaton. There's a bit of a similarity there."

Gillian Anderson and Rowan Atkinson in "Johnny English Reborn" (Universal Pictures)

2. She's funny—really funny.

Even as the ostensible straight man, Anderson gets her share of laughs in "Reborn." It's not such a surprise when you recall just how funny she could be on "The X-Files." "Thank you for saying that!" she exclaims. "A lot of people either don't remember or didn't watch it enough to remember we did quite a lot of comedic episodes." In addition, she says she's done quite a bit of comedy in the theater, as well as the films "Boogie Woogie" and "Tristram Shandy: A Cock and Bull Story." And she's currently attached to the period zombie comedy "The Curse of the Buxom Strumpet," based on the short "E'gad, Zombies!," alongside Ian McKellen and Judi Dench. "So many people ask about that," Anderson says. "I've been attached to that for about a year, but it has yet to see the light of day. It's very funny. We'll see if they pull it together." Anderson says she hasn't purposely been seeking more lighthearted fare. "Every once in a while, I get offered a comedy that's actually funny, and I take it. It really does come down to the script. When something appeals to me and all the elements seem right, I jump."

3. She's not intimidated by the classics.

Anderson has already tackled adaptations of such beloved novels as "The House of Mirth," "Bleak House," and "The Crimson Petal and the White." And soon she'll be seen in the most iconic of roles: that of the wealthy spinster Miss Havisham in a BBC miniseries adaptation of Charles Dickens' "Great Expectations." But isn't she a little young for the part of the spurned bride who descends into obsession? Anderson points out, "If you think of the age she was actually written, she would have been wed in her early 20s, and we know it's been 15 years since the wedding day. So, actually, I'm old for it! Dickens does describe her as being haggard and withered and old, but when you actually do the math, it feels justifiable." She adds that when she takes on famous works or plays notable people—such as Wallis Simpson in the miniseries "Any Human Heart"—she doesn't watch previous portrayals. "I don't want to have that in my head; I don't want to be influenced in any way by it," she says. "When I read a script or a novel, I only agree to do something if I get a very clear visual and take on who the character is. And there's some kind of click of recognition that takes place in my body, and a part of me says, 'Oh, I know who this is.' So if I were to then look at someone else in the part, I would think it would be too confusing to dissect what was my pure instinct and what was somebody else's instinct. So I try not to."

4. She didn't have a publicist for years.

Anderson has mastered the costume drama and made audiences believe in little green men, so it's surprising to learn she considers her most challenging role to date that of a film publicist in the movie "How to Lose Friends & Alienate People." She explains, "I chose to do that film without understanding the character. And I assumed I'd be able to find her along the way, and I don't ever feel like I found who she was. So that was kind of excruciating." Part of the struggle, Anderson reveals, is that she'd never had publicists and really didn't know how they worked. Wait a second: How is it possible Anderson graced countless magazine covers and spent years on a hit TV show without a publicist? "The show was so popular, it seemed at the time there was no point," she reasons. "Every free weekend I had was busy doing photo shoots anyway, and everybody was coming to us. It seemed crazy to spend money on a publicist." She finally broke down about three years ago when she met Kelly Bush of ID-PR at Cannes. "We ran into each other in an elevator and started talking and hit it off," she recalls. "Later, we were driving away and she was on the side of the street, and my partner said, 'There she is again. You should meet up with her.' So I rolled down my window and asked if we could meet for coffee. And that was that."

5. She considers her early work 'terrible.'

Anderson recalls that after graduating from theater school at DePaul University, she landed an agent at William Morris through a showcase in New York. After a year of pounding the pavement with no results, she was certain her agency was about to drop her—until she received three offers in one day. Two of them were plays, and one was an independent film, "The Turning." Though she is now featured prominently on the movie's poster, she says her role was small. "I was the girlfriend of the lead," she says. "And I was terrible." She adds with a laugh, "Hey, I was terrible at the beginning of 'The X-Files'! I still can't watch some of that stuff." One problem was that she was playing at the age of 25 an authoritative figure who had pages of "monologues full of medical and science mumbo jumbo." She admits, "I didn't feel like anybody's authority. I still feel that way, even in 'Johnny English'! I feel like I'm 12 inside. But somewhere along the way I found at least some legs in being able to pretend."

Gillian Anderson says she is “ crossing fingers” for another Xfiles movie.

Gillian Anderson is the first to joke with the “ agents curse” that hovers over her – an heritage from her character Dana Scully, in the Xfiles. “ My lucky is that I like to reinvent myself”, jokes the American actress, willing to revisit in the big screen the role of the FBI agent, specialized in paranormal cases. “ The producers are discussing a third Xfiles movie. And I am crossing my fingers”, says. The movie would be released in the end of 2012.
Recognized around the world as Scully, who she played from 1993 to 2002, alongside David Duchovny ( as Fox Mulder), Gillian can be seen right now in the skin of another agent. This time with a British accent, playing the MI7 boss in a fictional secreat sevice in the movie “ Johnny English Reborn”.
Pamela ( known as Pegasus, her character, is forced to recruit the clumsy agent played by Rowan Atkinson to prevent the death of a world leader. The movie that oppend last Friday in Brazil, already got 110 millions dollars. “ The most difficult thing during the filming was not to laugh from Rowan.” Read next, excerpts from the interview

UOL – How was to satirize the agents universe, considering the fame that Dana Scully gave you ?

Gillian Anderson – It was fun because this is a comedy. Pegasus is totally different from Dana Scully or even from Kate Fletcher, another agent in my gallery. Yes, believe if you want, but I will play another agent, now for the MI5 ( the official british service) in the movie “ Shadow Dancer” ( the thriller directed by James Marsh, now in post production) and with a release expected for 2012. "As I would never complain of Scully’s legacy, I face as a challenge to play these characters that could be alike, in a different way one from the other".

UOL – Did you use Judi Dench ( famous for playing M in the last James Bond movies) as an inspiration to play Pegasus ?

Gillian Anderson – Despite to understand the comparison, I confess that I need to re-watch the 007 movies to say if I am really imitating Judi somehow. In my memories, Judi is able to control everyone around her with a simple whisper. Whenever she opens her mouth, the world stops, and everybody listen to her with attention. Meanwhile Pegasus needs to make a lot of effort to keep the control in her office.

UOL – It was difficult to follow with your career after Scully ?

Gillian Anderson – Not very much and in Europe I receive invitations to do thing that are not like Scully. As in “ How to Lose a Friend and Alienate People” ( 2008) and Boogie Woogie ( 2009), and tv shows. But I recognize that in US and likely in the rest of the world the situation is different. Maybe the producers and directors think I have nothing to offer, unless I play an agent. But I prove them wrong, if they give me a chance (laughs).

UOL - "? Do you miss your Xfiles times ?

Gillian Anderson – I get melancolic whenever I talk with people Who were involveds in the show, as David (Duchovny), Who is a friend. If I didn’t have the opportunity to revisit Scully in the second movie ( I want to Believe in 2008), maybe I would miss more.

UOL - Is there really a chance of a third movie ( the first movie was released in 1998) ?

Gillian Anderson – Yes, the producers already told us that there is the possibility of a new movie. If the project works, of course I am in, even risking that the audience will find me redundant ( laughs).

UOL – In theatre, you have more chances of diversification, didn’t you ? As in the play “ A Doll’s House”, by Ibsen, where you played Nora ( in the West End in 2009) ?

Gillian Anderson – This is exactly why I moved to England, when The Xfiles ended. As the Theatre audience is different, the producers find it easier to disassociate me from Scully. The problem are my panic attacks ( smiles).
UOL – What?

Gillian Anderson – I am a very anxious person. Before I step on stage I get scared. After sometime I get better. In the opening night, is always the same thing: I think I am having a heart attack. The, I spend the whole season torturing myself: “ Why I got myself into this ?” But in the end, the experience is more satisfactory than painful. I meditate, what helps a lot.

UOL - But it doesnt happen in a movie set ?

Gillian Anderson – No. I mean, only in the first day. The bad thing is that is on the first Day that usually I end up having a very important scene, like my character signing her divorce papers, for exemple ( smiles). If I could choose, I would rather filming a trivial scene like, walking in a corridor or something like that. I really need time to adjust.
Fortunately I am not the only one. I worked recently with actor Donald Sutherland, who demands in contract, that his two first weeks of filming will be in the second part of the movie. And he is right ! If you are in good form in the first half of the movie, you will win the audience, even if your acting goes a little bit down in the second part. But the other way around wont happen. Too bad that I still don’t have all this power, to put in my contract this too. Maybe one day..

Great Expectations - Interview with Ray Winstone & Gillian Anderson

The centrepiece of this year's BBC One Christmas schedule is Sarah Phelps's (Oliver Twist, EastEnders) bold new three-part adaptation of Great Expectations starring Ray Winstone, Gillian Anderson, David Suchet and Douglas Booth.

Here Ray Winstone who stars as Magwitch and Gillian Anderson who stars as Miss Havisham talk about playing two of Dickens iconic characters and why Great Expectations is a must see for viewers who enjoy a bit of Dickens at Christmas.

"Christmas without a BBC show or drama is not really Christmas is it. You have enough to drink and eat and then you sit down by the fire and watch a good drama, and there's nothing better than Dickens at Christmas," says Ray Winstone, the East-London born actor who follows in the footsteps of past luminaries such as Finlay Currie and James Mason in the role of Charles Dickens fearsome convict, Abel Magwitch.

Just as Finlay Currie who played Magwitch in David Lean's 1946 critically-acclaimed version of Great Expectations left his indelible mark on the impressionable young Winstone, Winstone is now set to strike fear into the hearts of a new generation of youngsters when he emerges from the shadows of a foggy marshland to pounce on 11-year-old Pip played by Oscar Kennedy. An encounter which will change both lives forever.

"I remember the film came out with Sir John Mills and Sir Alec Guinness it kind of stuck in my mind, especially the sequence at the beginning in the graveyard - it scared me. It was the kind of image that stuck with me all of my life really. It was the character in the film actually, the old boy who played him, the fear you have as a kid, someone coming out of the dark, the kind of thing you have nightmares about," says the 54-year-old father of three.

"As I got older, I began to realise what the film was all about, it is such great writing. The fact that it's about where we come from, the inverted snobbery of people from other worlds, and what love is, and how love can be so cold. There's a hell of a lot going on in it. Maybe as a kid you don't understand, but you get it when you get older."

Young Philip Pirrip, Pip, the orphan from the forge at the heart of Great Expectations who survives his terrifying ordeal at the hands of Magwitch, is set for heartbreak following his encounter with Miss Havisham, the reclusive owner of Satis House. Encouraged to believe he has a future beyond the forge and also with Miss Havisham's adopted daughter Estella, his eyes are opened, and he falls in love, but this is all part of a master plan to destroy him.

"Miss Havisham draws him in and kind of opens his eyes and his heart, ultimately to crush it," says Gillian Anderson who was fabulous as Lady Dedlock in BBC One's critically-acclaimed drama serial, Bleak House.

The star of The X-Files and The Crimson Petal And The White, explains why the role of Miss Havisham was one she could not resist.

"Miss Havisham is an iconic character that kind of pervades our world in various forms. I was kind of interested in what it was that was so appealing about her, why she seems to get under people's skin, a woman who is deeply, almost psychotically manipulative and potentially really psychologically damaging to the two children that we see her have this direct impact on, and so there was a curiosity there for me.

"I don't know how much of my falling in love with her was about falling in love with my interpretation of her or what I was getting off the page of the script or from the book, the bottom line is knowing that the BBC would do a spectacular production, but also really admiring Sarah's (Phelps) adaptation, and feeling this was the one I wanted to be involved in."

Despite the time and effort that went into creating Miss Havisham's make-up, Gillian isn't complaining. The transformation from glamorous mother of three into one of Dickens most haunting characters was due to the skill of some of the best costume, hair and make-up teams in the country.

"It didn't actually take that long to get into hair and make-up every day," explains Gillian. "There were two different wigs but three different stages of deterioration for the wigs, and I think four-and-half stages of deterioration for the costumes, so it was mostly about getting that right. The last wig we had to put a bald cap on because she's lost so much of hair that you actually see through to her scalp. So that took a little longer, I think it was still under two hours."

The creation of the decaying interiors of Satis House by Production Designer, David Roger, was also a source of inspiration for the actress.

"There was something, I couldn't quite put my finger on it when I was inside the house," continues Gillian. "The set decorations had such depth to it. There was a layer of dust that was almost opaque between the cobwebs... it felt like the house was a living, breathing organism and that were it able to shake itself out, it would be able to have a conversation with you," laughs the American-born actress.

"It was stunning, every aspect of it including the mould that was developing in the corners; the moistness and the fungi; it was beautifully and tragically created."

As the world prepares to celebrate the bicenntary of the birth of Charles Dickens next February, Gillian reveals why she believes the much-loved writer of such epics including Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Bleak House, Martin Chuzzlewit, Nicholas Nickleby, Little Dorrit and Hard Times has endured the test of time.

"He is a wonderful storyteller and there are common recognisable themes in his books," says the London-based actress. "His characters are so complex, so multi-faceted and painful and tragically human, but also he draws such interesting stories. "

With Christmas only three weeks away, have Ray and Gillian made any plans to gather the family around the television set to watch their performances in the popular Dickens classic?

"I don't know about the whole family sat around watching me on Great Expectations at Christmas," says Winstone with a smile. "I will be there and the little'un and that, but I suppose the older ones will be out somewhere gallivanting about, but I certainly will be watching."

And Gillian's plans?

"I would if I was here, but I am not actually in the UK at that point, but I have every intention of bribing somebody for a DVD copy so we will be able to watch it when we're away."

У Джилл как обычно планы за границей в праздничные дни

After her BAFTA-nominated performance as Lady Dedlock in the BBC’s Bleak House, Hollywood star Gillian Anderson returns to Dickens as Miss Havisham in Great Expectations on BBC1. TV Choice caught up with her on location…

Miss Havisham is such an iconic role — did you always want to play her?
As much as I’m familiar with the book it’s not in my mind as one of my favourites as it is for a lot of people. But this was a time when I was as excited by the adaptation, if not more so, than the book. I felt I might have a way in to the character and I fell in love with the script. Miss Havisham had a real historical impact.

In what way?
There are various things that have come to my attention in terms of the Miss Havisham effect. Not just the potential addiction to loss and the pain of loss but there’s potentially a chemical release that takes place upon the pain of loss that soothes you. She’s been influential over time and just recently a friend emailed me saying, ‘I’ve always thought of myself as Miss Havisham, it’s wonderful that you’re getting to play her.’ Everybody has some kind of a story, an experience, or something that relates to her.

How do you view her relationship with Estella?
In the book it says she originally wanted a child, a daughter, to come and be with her. After a period of loneliness it was as much about having something to love and company as anything else and that was her initial intention, not to do the psychological stuff that she ended up doing on Estella. I think as Estella starts to grow and Miss Havisham experiences her beauty, she thinks back to her own beauty and all that happened, what was lost. She starts to feel that somehow she will be able to seek revenge through Estella and somehow she will be redeemed. That somebody will pay for her pain.

She’s such a famous character, everyone will have their own idea of her.
I know and that’s the trouble of getting involved in adaptations of books that people love. I know that from doing The Crimson Petal And The White and Any Human Heart. People get so passionate. A book I liked recently has been made into a movie and I keep seeing the trailer and I have such a negative feeling about it just based on the trailer, you can’t help it. I just had to jump into this with both feet and hope for the best, hope people like it.

What was it like filming the scenes where Miss Havisham catches fire?
I did the beginning bit before she’s set alight and then the stuntwoman came in. The fire caught quicker than they anticipated and at one point the veil rose up like the paper of those Italian Amaretti biscuits!

Have you seen the classic David Lean film of Great Expectations?
No and I want to very much. I’m going away for six weeks so I’ll take it with me.

You’ve had a varied career both in America and England.
It would be nice to shake it up a bit, it would be nice to do a broader comedy in the States. But I’m certainly enjoying myself.

Спасибо, очень интересно.

Не слышно, куда Джилл уезжает на полтора месяца?

[Виктория]

Понятия не имею. Но у неё же намечался фильм в штатах Барбигёрл, может, на его съёмки едет.

[NikitA]

Возможно. Всё-таки полтора месяца рождественских каникул было бы слишком круто даже для неё

[Виктория]

Пишут, что это интервью брали у неё ещё во время съёмок, потому это она говорит не о сейчас А уезжала она тогда, наверно, в промо-тур Джонни Инглиша в Австралию.

Gillian Anderson: 'When he was just 30, my brother was prepared to die’
Actress Gillian Anderson talks about love, the loss of a sibling and the challenge of playing Miss Havisham.

Gillian Anderson has a tattoo on her right wrist that is in Sanskrit, and when I ask her what it means she tells me, laughing, that its rough translation is “none of your business”. Anderson is a curious mix of cautious and carefree, clamming up about some skin ink yet talking openly about her brother, Aaron, who died three months ago of a brain tumour. He was just 30. I remark, rather obviously, that it must have been a tough year. “Well, there’s certainly been a lot happening this year. But I feel like I’ve learnt. I feel like I’ve changed in a positive way.”

Aaron was diagnosed with neurofibromatosis when he was just three years old. It is a rare condition with no known cure and causes tumours to grow on nerve tissue, leading to skin and bone abnormalities, but Anderson says that “it’s questionable as to whether this was related to that. His condition involves tumours but not very often brain tumours, so the fact that he had an inoperable one was shocking and not commonplace. He was getting his PhD at Stanford. He was in the middle of a young life.”

Aaron was a Buddhist “and because of that he was prepared. He was diagnosed [with the brain tumour] at 27 and it got really rough at the end, but he was completely ready. So it was kind of remarkable for everybody who got to witness it and witness his journey.” Was it almost tougher on those watching than on Aaron himself? “Yes and no. I mean, my parents are kind of extraordinary…” she trails off. “I think it comes down to his perception of everything, his acceptance of his path. None of us were hanging on and trying to pull him back into the world. We didn’t want it to be any different than the way it was happening because it was really clear that he was OK.”

A lot of interviews dwell on Anderson’s spells in therapy, her peripatetic childhood that saw her move from Chicago to Puerto Rico to London to Michigan, the panic attacks she has suffered while doing theatre. “I mean, the amount of times I read the same f------ things!” This, Anderson says, “boggles my mind”, because she doesn’t feel it is representative of the conversation she has had with journalists. It makes her seem like a self-indulgent luvvie, when in actual fact she is terribly good company.

We meet in London (this is home, with her partner and three children) to discuss her role as Miss Havisham in the BBC’s Christmas adaptation of Great Expectations, her second Dickens role for the corporation, having played Lady Dedlock in their adaptation of Bleak House. Anderson is quite astonishingly beautiful, far more so than on screen, and speaks with a British accent, which somehow seems to suit her better. She arrives alone, roaring up in a 4x4 and apologising for being late, explaining that she almost ran out of petrol on the M4, while travelling to London from her place in the country. Where in the country? She clams up again, and when I tell her I only asked out of absent interest, that I’m not planning on noting down her entire address and then printing it in the paper, she relaxes a little – enough, at least, to name the county as Wiltshire.

And that’s the thing about Anderson: she is fluent and articulate when asked about feelings and experiences, all the personal stuff, but get her on seemingly innocuous things and she becomes oddly private. The 43-year-old would probably refuse to tell you what she had for lunch, but ask her if she was aware of how young she was, by modern standards, when she had a baby and got married (she was 24), and she goes off on one. “Well, I’ve never really been aware of anything in my life. I mean, when I was doing The X-Files, people used to say 'Oh my gosh, what a whirlwind life you’ve had – you got this job at 24, you got married, you got pregnant, you got divorced.’ But my response was always: isn’t that just what people do? It never really hit me over the head in the way people were saying.”

And then, without prompting: “I think that… maybe the problem is… I mean, I don’t have any regrets whatsoever, because any regret would mean that I wish that I hadn’t done the series or had Piper [her first child], but I guess if I were able to talk to my younger self, I might have wished for a little bit more consciousness. And I wish I had known that I had choice. Not choice in terms of whether or not I had the baby. I just think there were a few times in my life when I could have said no, or I could have stepped back. But I always just went whichever way the wind blew me.”

She has been divorced twice, from a cameraman on The X-Files (the father of Piper, who is now 17) and the documentary maker Julian Ozanne. Might she marry Mark Griffiths, the businessman with whom she has sons of three and five? Or is she done with marriage? “Neither. I have no idea.” She says she likes having children now, when she is “not working 16 hours a day. [With Piper] I was shooting The X -Files and she was in my trailer while I was on set. And I also think that being a bit older makes a difference, just in terms of the kind of attention and appreciation for the child.”

Did she feel a little trapped playing FBI agent Dana Scully? Anderson nods. The series ran for just under 10 years, and there have been two X-Files films, but you get the sense that she would be happy never to reprise the role again, that she has only relatively recently started getting the parts she really wants. Last year she was nominated for an Olivier for her portrayal of Nora in A Doll’s House at the Donmar. There was a part in The Last King of Scotland, a wonderful turn as Wallis Simpson in Any Human Heart, and she starred as Mrs Castaway in the recent adaptation of The Crimson Petal and the White.

Anderson is a fabulous character actress, and won Bafta, Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for her Lady Dedlock performance, though taking on Miss Havisham somehow seems a greater challenge, perhaps because she is a more iconic Dickens character, who has been played by everyone from Martita Hunt to Anne Bancroft and Charlotte Rampling (Helena Bonham-Carter will also take on the role in a BBC film to be released next year).

Some have said Anderson is too beautiful, young and glamorous to play Miss Havisham, with one Dickens expert describing the actress as a “cougar rather than a crone”. But on screen, Anderson is crack-lipped, scratched, and her performance has an almost ethereal quality to it. “It’s an interesting argument [regarding the age of Miss Havisham], because of course it’s written from Pip’s perspective, and when I was 12, anybody above the age of 25 looked ancient. Presumably Miss Havisham was jilted at the altar when she was 18 or 20, and it’s 25 years from then…” And actually, Anderson wonders “if it’s not more interesting if she’s not 70. Because then it’s certainly more provocative when older Pip shows up.” So a little cougar-ish then.

She enjoyed playing Miss Havisham more than Lady Dedlock “because she’s slightly mischievous and naughty and her dialogue is more poetic. And also, Miss Havisham seems a lot more eccentric.” We talk a bit about Dickens – she says she isn’t more of a fan of him than, say, Emily Brontë or Edith Wharton – and her love of London. “It feels like home and it has for a long time.” Her eyes light up when she talks about the flat she lived in as a child in Haringey, about the “hedge smell” of Crouch End.

She apologises but she has to go. I ask where she’s off to and the gates come down again. “I have to go to a premiere,” she says bashfully. Of what? “Um, not anything I’m in.” I press on, and eventually discover she is going to Mission: Impossible 4, because she has “some friends” in it. Not Tom Cruise, it turns out, but a nice British actor whose name she won’t tell me (I gather it is Simon Pegg). You look like you are dreading it, I say. She starts laughing and puts on her best gritted-teeth face. “I’m not quite sure why I am going, but yes, it will be fun. It will.”

Вроде бы, ничего нового, а читается интересно.

Спасибо

[Виктория]

Про брата новое, она о нём ещё не говорила так развёрнуто.

[NikitA]

Для меня не новое, потому что я то там, то сям читала о нём в разные годы, и на форумах бывала, где он общался, и Джилл сама что-то рассказывала. Поэтому новостей конкретных нет.

[Виктория]

Я имею в виду, о его смерти она говорит первый раз, до этого она упомянула об этом, сказав, что последний раз плакала тогда-то, потому что у неё умирает брат.

[NikitA]

в этом плане - да.

Gillian Anderson: I’ll be on board for an X-Files movie if they pull it together
Johnny English Reborn star Gillian Anderson talks about putting family life ahead of her work and how she's would be up for making an X-Files movie.

How did you start acting?

I didn’t particularly like school very much. I didn’t really feel like I fitted in or belonged. I used to shave the side of my hair with a razor blade and pierce my nose. I was listening to bands such as Circle Jerks, Butthole Surfers and Bauhaus. However, once I started acting in a community play, a lightbulb went on – I felt quite sure of myself and about the direction I was going in. Then, when I decided I wanted to go on to college, I asked for suggestions of where one should go if one wanted to be an actor, and somebody told me about the Goodman Theatre School in Chicago. So I sent away for an application. That was the only place I auditioned. I have a tendency to be really naive about things but it worked out because I got accepted.

Your MI7 Agent character in Johnny English Reborn, Pamela, is pretty serious. Did you purposefully play the role straight, like your character, Dana Scully, in The X-Files?

Yes, exactly. In fact, it was very similar to The X-Files, ironically. In order for the jokes to work, it is not appropriate for the character to witness the extent of things taking place. In The X-Files, my character is the disbeliever, so I was used to being the one who is looking in the wrong direction or being out of the jokes, so to speak.

You’ve acted in more TV and independent films lately. Was that a conscious decision?

Yeah, I’ve made a decision to put my family life first, so I don’t do something that takes me away from them for three months at a time. I like the idea of popping in and doing a few weeks here. However, there are only a few things that will allow for that kind of schedule. I’m not terribly ambitious. There is a part of me that takes what comes. I don’t read Variety, I don’t do any of that sort of stuff.

You live in London now – do you miss the Los Angeles weather?

No, I actually don’t. People often talk about the London weather in a negative way but then I lived in Vancouver when we were shooting The X-Files, which was incredibly cold.

Is there any truth to the rumours that another X-Files movie will be made?

I don’t know. There is talk of it but I don’t know what that will equate to. I’ve said it from the beginning that if it’s something they pull together, I’ll be on board.

[NikitA]

Хорошее интервью, спасибо.

5 things you didn't know about Gillian Anderson.

1. When I feel stuck or need some guidance I always consult a psychic. I've been fortunate to have some very accurate readings from various psychics in the past which have helped me a great deal.

2. I have a pierced belly button. I had it done while shooting thexfiles I'd always wanted one so I did it on my lunch break. Then for the next scene I had to dive on the ground on my stomach.

3. Rod Stewart's Maggie May is my afvourite song of all time, It brings back memories of my parents playing it when I was a child. Now if it comes on the radio, everything stops and I scream for it to be turned up loud.

4. My partner and I have been together for five years now and we're very happy. But when I was single before him, I never went on dates. I've never been formally asked out in my life. May be it was the vibe I gave out.

5. The xfiles helped turn me into a no nonense person. i used to trip over my lines when they had me spouting out orders beacuse I felt I didn't have the power. But playing Scully made me blossom in real life so I'm grateful to her.
