I was subject to a lot of personal physical scrutiny, I was criticised a whole lot and the British press had been quite unkind if you ask me."
"I felt bullied if I'm honest. I remember thinking, 'this is horrible and I expectation it passes' - it performed definitely pass nonetheless it built me realise that, in the event that's what being well-known was, I had not been prepared to be famous, not at all," she shared.
At that time, rather than cashing on her behalf newfound fame, the actress made a decision to hone her craft.
"I still felt like I wasn't really prepared to do lots of big Hollywood careers. It was an enormous responsibility. I didn't want to make mistakes, I didn't desire to blow it - I wanted to be in it for the much time game. So I did strategically try to find smaller things, just so I could figure out the craft a bit better and figure out myself somewhat better, and keep some degree of privacy and dignity," Winslet explained.
The actress recently starred in the 19th century period drama Ammonite, as real-life paleontologist Mary Anning, who falls madly deeply in love with a woman (Saoirse Ronan).
