Fuck, that was a good interview. You totally know the interviewer has it bad for Owen, which would've usually irritated me, except I'm all, "yes!" because I'm *right there* with her.
“I was haunted for months by the scene in Gosford Park when Kelly McDonald visits him in his room and he’s just lounging on the bed,” says Cate Blanchett, with whom Owen stars as Sir Walter Raleigh in The Golden Age, the sequel to Elizabeth

It's not something I would say, but I am utterly unsurprised that someone, somewhere said it.
That is a little over the top - though I have to say, reading that article it does sound like they went out of their way to fuck it all up.
