A few years ago, if you had told me I'd be moving back to Glasgow I'd have said, 'No way'. But it's changed. It's much more vibrant, bohemian. But I'm 35 and I've become a bit of a homebody, I don't really go out much. Same in New York. My home could be anywhere but I love Glasgow.
Mine wasn't a lakes-and-boats kind of childhood. I grew up on a Glasgow council estate with a single mother. For our holidays, we went to Grandma and Grandad's caravan near Aberfoyle.
I was interested in drama, but it never seemed like a real profession somehow. It was so outside my experience, and I probably wouldn't have had the confidence for drama school, though I did send off for an application form.
The people on programmes like 'Made in Chelsea' just want to be celebrities. It's so depressing. No proper actor has that as a goal. I'm striving for longevity in my career.
I adore the fact that when I'm driving home from work, as soon as I hit my neighbourhood, I see people I know.
I properly enjoy what I do, but I know it's not brain surgery. I don't take myself too seriously.
I find just being on set embarrassing. Mortifying. And that's with all my clothes on.
I thought I might not want to act any more after having a baby. It turns out I still enjoy it.
I'm pretty happy with the two cities I call home now - Glasgow and New York. But I'd like to give Paris a shot.
Sometimes I bite off a fingernail to use as a toothpick. Nasty.
Robert Altman was such an incredible person to have the privilege to know and meet and have dinner with.
I loved Winnie the Pooh, the Disney character, and I loved his wit and warmth.
People don't change very much, and the things life ends up being about don't change from generation to generation. Life is about love. And people's stories don't really change. Your environment changes dramatically, technology changes, but people don't change, in the way our minds work.
Being a parent is such a difficult business; you don't always get things right. And also, you don't want to be a perfect parent... You need people to be human, and part of it is imperfection.
It's really great if people actually want to see something that you've made and you've put a lot of effort into. And that doesn't always happen, and there's not always a rhyme or reason.
I spent pretty much all my wages from 'No Country For Old Men' on a pair of cowboy boots. They're ridiculous. It's like wearing two Christmas trees on my legs.
Watching films I'm in is always a bit odd, especially when I'm watching them for the first time with other people. It's hard not to see my faults.
I've always been pretty self-sufficient. I never had to borrow money from my mum, even in the early days.
There was nobody in my family who knew anything about the film industry. I'm from the west of Scotland. It's not exactly a mecca for filmmaking. I think I saw Rab C. Nesbitt in Asda once, but that was about it.
