Know Joanna in Quotes
2012-2015 press interviews
"Pasolini and Bergman I consider the most influential film makers of all time."
"It's probably wrong to have a favourite anything, but I do, my favourite role to play - is absolutely Martha in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" - I've already played Lady Macbeth on stage and Miss Julie."
"I'd rather read Strindberg than Shakespeare"
Scorsese's "Raging Bull" is the reason I became obsessed with film, and then dreamt to be an actress. That, and an overwhelming desire to challenge one's self, to be fearless - in expression, in art."
"It could have been so easy if I agreed to get my kit off. I was being cast for everything that needed nudity or sexual explicit scenes. I was a top label bikini model. There were hundreds of offers at major level, including the BBC (playing an artist's muse). I had already neglected a high end modelling career. I rebelled against it all in my 20s."
"There is more to life than the shape of your body. I have posed naked for portraits and sculpture. I have no problem with nudity. I quite adore it. But it shall not define my career."
"My love for Bergman, Ibsen, Strindberg came first, and then my Swedish partner. I believe he introduced me to Söderberg."
"It's a dream to be cast to play Alice in Strindberg's "Dance of Death" - a dream!
"My favourite directors of all time? Oh god. OK. Bergman, Pasolini, Polanski, Fassbinder, Ferrara, Godard, Bertolucci, Truffait, Lynch, Peckinpah, Lars Von Trier, Cassavetes, Breillat. Sophia Coppola, we need more women, don't we? I've seen so many films that have left a lasting impression, we could be here all day."
"If my life depended on picking one film, then it would definitely have to be "Cul de Sac" by Polanski. But then "Frances" or "Three Colours Blue" or "From Here To Eternity." See - I'd be dead now!"
Thanks
