I’m looking at working with people I get on with, that respect me, that don’t just see me as a piece of ass. Which I have experienced as well. I’ve nearly walked off very big films before, and I would, because I don’t want that in my life. I want to enjoy the work I do.

More quotes from Gemma Arterton
My mother, she had a very good attitude toward money. I’m very grateful for the fact that we had to learn to save. I used to get like 50 pence a week, and I’d save it for like five months. And then I’d spend it on Christmas presents. I’d save up like eight pounds. It’s nothing, but we did that.
