Personal Quote:

[on being honored with an Oscar nomination for 'Albert Nobbs'] There were a lot of people who lived like this. One thing you have to remember in England that is different from over here, is that sodomy if you're a guy was illegal. You'd be kicked out of the country. There was nothing against lesbianism because Queen Victoria didn't believe it existed. See more »
