Tilda Swinton Quotes:
  • On ORLANDO: "I do look at it again these days and I am proud of it. Not least because I realize it really was quite groundbreaking at the time and I realize also what an influence and impact it had."
  • On THE DEEP END: "I didn't know the filmmakers, but they sent me a script and it was so well-written; it read like a film I wanted to see. This is the film that I've been complaining about not being able to see - a woman thinking her way through a crisis for 90 minutes."
