MTV: We’ve seen your lovely wife, Milla Jovovich, in a lot of your movies. What new sides of Milla will we see in this film?
Anderson: It was one of my attractions for making the movie. I’d always wanted to see Milla in a period film. I always felt that she would look awesome in the dresses, and she’s got a kind of period face as well. I always knew that she would fit well into the 17th century. One of the big attractions to making and seeing the movie is seeing these opulent costumes and also the fact that it features M’lady De Winter, who’s one of the original really bad girls in literature and bad girls in movies. Milla does quite a lot of action, but in real 17th-century dress, in the corsets and skirts flying. It’s pretty exciting and unique. I’ve never seen anything done like that before. Full interview
