Sound Bite: Kate Beckinsale
I don’t think, well to be honest it was a twenty-one million dollar budget, it was a first time director, it was an English actress who’s never thrown a punch you know I don’t know how high the expectations actually were until they saw the final print and then they got very excited then. And then it kind of seems like it got marketed as this giant movie and everyone remembers it as being a blockbuster you know this big budget studio movie and really it was not, it was this risky little you know smaller budget. So yes this time is different you know people know who we are now, its weird.

I think its that stuff they make um cotton candy out of, that sugar syrup (talks) I mean I think the stuff that goes in your mouth is defiantly a sugar syrup cause it it taste pretty good, its really sweet you get sort of a rush off it to be honest with you. But I think that stuff they put, I don’t know what the stuff is made out of that they put all over people. Maybe it’s the same stuff, a lot of it. (talks) Somebody the other day asked me if it was cows blood, I said I really don’t think so I would have known when I tasted it, that’s gross.

Yeah for me I think I kind of approached it like an action movie because I really love an action movie and the whole kind of gothic side of it was sort of less my thing but I know the vampire myth is so potent I mean there are people out there filing their teeth into a point and having meetings at night and the whole thing and I think I think it's romantic. I think that whole insatiable appetite thing is very sexy and gets people going like crazy.
