Saffron Burrows has admitted she was planning to leave America - until Obama’s ascent changed her mind.
The glamorous English actress lives in the US and spoke highly of the new President at the Sundance Film Festival, where she is promoting her latest film Shrink. At the premiere, she said: "I was on the verge of leaving and then Obama turned up. "So everything looks like, you know, America’s a hopeful place all over again." She said there was "more work" in the States than in the UK, laughing: "It’s a bigger country!"
In the new flick Saffron plays a once-famous actress who is a client of a top Hollywood psychiatrist, played by Kevin Spacey. She said of the film: "I think more than anything it’s probably just about human beings and about how we pick ourselves up and start all over again when life goes wrong." Comparing herself to her character, she added: "She’s a little sadder about her predicament at that moment in the film than I am right now, thank God. So she’s a bit of a melancholic actress… Her life’s not going that well."
