Emma Watson says she took an acting hiatus after realizing: 'I didn't have a voice'
“I think I felt a bit caged,” she recalls. “The thing I found really hard was that I had to go out and sell something that I really didn’t have very much control over. To stand in front of a film and have every journalist be able to say, ‘How does this align with your viewpoint?’ It was very difficult to have to be the face and the spokesperson for things where I didn’t get to be involved in the process.
She continues: “I was held accountable in a way that I began to find really frustrating, because I didn’t have a voice, I didn’t have a say... I started to realize that I only wanted to stand in front of things where if someone was going to give me flak about it, I could say, in a way that didn’t make me hate myself, ‘Yes, I screwed up, it was my decision, I should have done better.’”
