In the new picture of Woody Allen's "The Wheel of Wonders" Kate Winslet plays one of the main roles. The actress is known for her acting style and many believe that she is a vivid representative of the classical school. But Kate herself hastens to dispel some myths about her personality and frankly answers all questions from journalists:
"People around are absolutely confident that I have a classical education. And in the film business this fact often discourages some directors and colleagues in the shop. But this is not so and sometimes, to prove this, you have to make a lot of efforts. I just want to work, freely, so that no one is afraid to invite me to their projects. "
"I know how to calm down"
About work with the cult director Winslet responds with full delight and stresses that he is a true professional:
"Working with Woody Allen is excellent. Everything is clear, professional, no talk. I like to work that way. But my colleagues - Justin Timberlake, Juneau Temple and James Belushi were scared. But I, like a real stewardess, were always on the alert and, every now and then, tried to prevent the oncoming panic. And this is unacceptable. Sometimes, right in the middle of a take, Woody suddenly stood up and ironically said: "Stop the camera! Boredom. I am going for lunch". He never runs the text. Can slightly adjust the phrase or pose of the actor. We were left to ourselves. We knew who we were fortunate to work with, and we tried not to fall into the mud with our faces. "
Kate Winslet is one of those actresses who calls Allen "a connoisseur of female characters": "
"I really think Woody is a little bit of a woman. In the sense that he has an understanding of this part is all right. Few people understand women like him. And, I think, through his images in films he tries to pass this piece of himself. "
Creepy Clowns
The actress admits that she does not like places like the amusement park on Coney Island and, in general, considers such adrenaline extremely dangerous:
"I do not like rides and all kinds of roller coasters. Is it dangerous. I always think, but suddenly one of the mechanisms will break or something will go wrong. And in my childhood I did not like being in the midst of this chaos and noise. But one of my children simply adores height, risk and all sorts of attractions. I can not look at it calmly and constantly turn away. And I'm a little afraid of even clowns. There is still something sinister and disturbing about this. That's why it was easy for me in the role of Jenny, I knew how hard it was for her. Although, you know, in time I realized that Jenny was putting pressure on me, it was difficult for me to get rid of her image. I felt like something was choking, very unpleasant sensations. Previously, this has never happened to me. "
"I'm not out of the timid"
In 2009, Kate Winslet received an Oscar for her starring role in Harvey Weinstein's "The Reader." Of course, in connection with this actress repeatedly asked questions about the sexual behavior of the infamous producer:
"It was very unpleasant for me to hear all these terrible stories, and I wanted to cry terribly. To be honest, I thought for a very long time. I was so angry. I was disgusted. It's disgusting that women have to endure this. No one should be so humiliated. I never knew anything specifically, but when these confessions began to appear, I was not very surprised. Weinstein always behaved insolently and rudely. Everyone knew about his terrible and unpleasant behavior. Fortunately, I was bypassed, alongside me throughout the career were strong women. And I myself am not from a timid dozen. I did not have these stories with hotels and apartments with me, but if it happened, I would not be at a loss and hit him in the eye with a heel. "

Happy to be yourself
Twenty years after the legendary "Titanic", fate again brought Kate and Steven Spielberg. This time the director invited her to appear in the second part of the fantastic Avatar:
"I do not even believe that 20 years have passed. Half a lifetime has passed. And I'm friends with Leo for half a lifetime. When James invited me to the role, I was happy to work with him again. For me in this project a lot of new, from the technical side, I learn about the amazing effects. I like to learn everything new and interesting. Jim is an incredible person, a brilliant cinematographer, and he respects me. If in life I would have got into a difficult situation, I would like, that it was he who was close. He always knows what to do. Yes, I am. I do not hesitate to talk about problems, I always remain by myself. It helps a lot in life and work. And yet, I always tell the truth, it's much easier. In general, I'm happy that I am me! "
