(on remarks about her weight) “It’s one of those things I learned quickly to ignore. Once it was different, it hurt me. When I was twenty I pretended it didn’t bother me, but I felt very bad, I did. In front of journalists and the public I acted superior, but I was dying inside. Now everything is different. It takes time, but you can learn it.”

There’s a loneliness that only exists in one’s mind. The loneliest moment in someone’s life is when they are watching their whole world fall apart, and all they can do is stare blankly.

Leonardo and I have worked together on four pictures now. It’s been one of the great adventures of my career. He is absolutely essential to me, to all of us, and essential to the history of movies. - Martin Scorsese on working with Leonardo Dicaprio [x]

It felt like no time had passed in the way that we’re so comfortable with each other personally and professionally. We’ve been friends for such a long time, and we knew what boundaries we have with  each other professionally, and we knew that we could get great stuff out of each other. She’s one of my best friends. But was this different? It was, in that we were a part of every nuance of this movie. There was a different level of intimacy. It was a much more hands-on approach, and we were both more responsible for our characters and the tone of the film. That’s just something that comes with age and experience. After all, we were barely 20, 21 years old in Titanic.-Leo

Things are sweeter when they’re lost. I know—because once I wanted something and got it. It was the only thing I ever wanted badly…And when I got it it turned to dust in my hands.

I’ve been really, really lucky because whole, honest roles for young women don’t often exist. But now people are like, ‘Whoa, you’re such a feminist! You play such young, strong women.’ It’s like, if I were a guy, you wouldn’t be saying that to me. If I was a guy you wouldn’t be saying, ‘Wow, you play such strong young male roles.’ The question wouldn’t exist.

She spoke on the phone from London today to promote the theatrical re-release of James Cameron’s epic adventure on April 4, timed to the 100th anniversary of the ship’s sinking on April 15, 1912. Regretfully, her shipmate and love interest Leonardo DiCaprio — who is busy shooting Quentin Tarantino’s Western Django Unchained — could not be with her.

Titanic lore has it that the actor was never comfortable with the flood of fame that was thrust upon him at the young age of 23, especially with having to cope with the wave of Leo mania that spread among teen girls back then.

Says Winslet, who was 22 when the movie opened, “I love him so much, but I would never speak for him. I can say that the only reason for him not being here — and especially for him not being here for me — is because he is shooting.”

As DiCaprio and Winslet told USA TODAY in 2008 for the pair’s second reteaming in the domestic melodrama Revolutionary Road, they have remained the best of friends and often discuss the projects they are considering on the phone. “I don’t really talk to anybody apart from Leo about what I am thinking of doing,” Winslet said during the interview.

Little has changed between the still-close friends, who have jointly pondered the fact that Titanic is resurfacing on the big screen. “We have sat across a table with drinks, going, ‘Can you believe it? How is it possible?’ It seems crazy.”

“I would love to say I predicted it would be one of the biggest hits in film history. I didn’t — and wondered whether I should do it at all. I resisted it for a long time because I had been offered the film Boogie Nights. The fact that Kate Winslet said “yes” was the final decider. She was awesome. We were definitely shoulders for each other to lean on. We had to be partners on the film. All the complaining in the world was done between us two, so we did not have to vent it on anyone else.”
