Happy Birthday: Keira Knightley

Born: March 26, 1985 in Teddington, Middlesex, England, UK

On making Love Actually (2003): We had kind of done all our wedding and we felt like the stars of the show, then sudden you’ve got all these other people with story lines and you think “Excuse me, I know you’re Alan Rickman, but get out of my film, please, thank you.”.

I know for a fact the work is going to dry up, and people will get bored of me. That’s not bitterness, just the truth.

(on her conception) I was a bet. My mum was desperate for another child, and my dad told her that the only way they could afford to have one was if she sold a play. So Mum wrote
“When I Was a Girl, I Used to Scream and Shout”.

I don’t think I can call myself an actress yet. I just don’t think my skill level is that high. I hope that with every job it gets better. But until I’m good, I can say I’m trying to be an actor, but I don’t think I’ve completely made it.
