Helena Bonham Carter in person is just a stunning person, both her looks and her wonderfully acerbic personality. For a person thats done mostly serious roles its very cool to hear her make fun of herself. She obviously enjoyed being the titular character in Corpse Bride not only because her boyfriend, Tim Burton, made the film but because its an exceptional dark tale that surpasses its predecessor, The Nightmare Before Christmas in every way possible.

Check out the official site for Tim Burtons...

Helena was incredible in Big Fish, one of my favorite movies.

What a beautiful bit she said about "An unstoppable spirit...unfortunately, his body was stoppable." RIP.

Thanks for the interview.

Interestingly enough, both her and Johnny Depp have stated that they hate watching themselves in a movie but this was tolerable because they didn't have to watch themselves. I wonder if it's just a common trait with good, serious actors?

I adored her in Fight Club. Marla was such a goofy character.

Good interview.

That lady's a class act. I like that she married a weirdo, it confirms my respect for her.

Helena is my girlfriend. I love hearing her speak and can't wait until Friday when Corpse Bride drops... for the rest of us, anyway. Good interview. Cheers all around.

I LOVE HER!!!!

Helena played a paraplegic in a movie with Kenneth Brannagh once and still managed to look cute. She gave a great performance too! I can't wait for Corpse Bride!!

And when she's all dolled up.....

*Edited to say "Big Fish" made me cry, cry, cry!!*

I'm surprised by what she had to say about Ismail Merchant. It's funny to hear about the obstinacy behind all those Edwardian society films.
