I hate this image of me as a prim Edwardian. I want to shock everyone.
- Helena Bonham Carter
It was a challenge to be able to create a character without being able to use one's normal set of expressions. All the rubber and makeup attached to your face left you with only a modest range of facial movements.
- Helena Bonham Carter
The animators are absolutely extraordinary. It's mind-boggling.
- Helena Bonham Carter
People say, `You're still breast-feeding, that's so generous.' Generous, no! It gives me boobs and it takes my thighs away! It's sort of like natural liposuction. I'd carry on breast-feeding for the rest of my life if I could.

I hate this image of me as a prim Edwardian. I want to shock everyone.
- Helena Bonham Carter
You can actually have a pitch button, you know, to get people on pitch.
- Helena Bonham Carter
You become very angry and depressed that you keep getting offered only these exceedingly demure and repressed roles. They're so not me. That's why films like Fight Club were so important to me because I think I confounded certain stereotypes and limited perceptions of what I could do as an actress.
- Helena Bonham Carter
With the number of people I ignore, I'm lucky I work at all in this town.
- Helena Bonham Carter
What I loved about playing the corpse is that obviously somebody else got to do the physical part. It appeals to the part of me that likes playing character parts and getting the chance to get away from my own physicality.
- Helena Bonham Carter
Usually I'm frustrated when I look at my films and I don't believe that I've made a real transformation beyond my usual sets of gestures and expressions. I still have this nagging feeling that it's me, that I didn't create a unique character.
- Helena Bonham Carter
Tim also has enough confidence so that it always looks like a Tim Burton film, but it really is collaborative. You're allowed to do it your way but of course he's always going to choose his way.
- Helena Bonham Carter
There was a real Corpse Bride, which we still have, which is the original one. She's in really bad shape actually.
- Helena Bonham Carter
The problems come when your personal life and relationships come under scrutiny in the press and often very uncomplimentary things are printed about you.
- Helena Bonham Carter
That's the thing with animated films-I often feel that puppets get the better parts compared to us normal actresses.
- Helena Bonham Carter
That year I was asked to present something at the Oscars with Matthew Broderick. I didn't know what to wear, so I just got a dress from my cupboard, a tulle thing. I shoved a skirt of my mother's underneath it and tied my own bow on the front. It had flair, I suppose, but looked a nightmare.
- Helena Bonham Carter
People have lots of misconceptions about me. My mum, who is half French and half Spanish, gets outraged when I'm called quintessentially English. I owe my looks to my mum-which was 90 percent of getting my first job. And, some people would argue, 90 percent of my entire career.
- Helena Bonham Carter
No matter how many modern parts I do, people still refer to me as Mrs. Costume Drama. Fight Club is a studio pic, and I've done very few of those. I've got a feeling it's going to change things for me"
