Shirley Henderson is prolific. She made seven films in 2002, several more last year and has three more on the go.
That's besides her countless TV gigs, which include Hamish Macbeth, plus treading the theatre boards regularly. Yet she is a relative unknown.
Quote:
Movie-goers may know her as the friend of Renee Zellweger's Bridget in Bridget Jones's Diary or Moaning Myrtle in the second Harry Potter movie.
Quote:
Her name, however, doesn't roll off the tongue. It lacks the artful alliteration of a Holly Hunter and the exotica of an Uma Thurman. Shirley Henderson's name is quite everyday.
Quote:
"It's good that I'm not a household name. The kind of parts I play in films are usually very different . . . also I've only been in two or three films that are hugely commercial, like Bridget Jones and Harry Potter, but I've not had a big part in those.
"The other films I've done are more art-house films, therefore the masses don't know you.""
Quote:
Vanity is not a Henderson thing. Her perfectly unplucked eyebrows are thick and dark and only a smidgen short of Frida Kahlo's artistic arch.
Quote:
"I love the roles I get. I find them very challenging. They are quite difficult because often they are not my accent and not a life that I've known about.
"There is a lot of research often required. I've been very lucky with the directors. They let you play with the part.
"I don't think you have to be a household name. I don't think that's what acting is about. It's about enjoying the work and however the journey takes you."
Apparently her new film "Intermission" is coming out soon or else out in cinemas in some parts of the world.
