KATE Winslet says movie stars are lazy in comparison to TV actors.
The British actress is about to be seen in five-part HBO mini-series Mildred Pierce, based on James M. Cain’s 1941 novel.
And despite the show lacking that blockbuster status, Kate says she had to work so much harder to play her divorcee character.
“We had more to shoot and we had to work a lot faster, but the determination and the level of focus that we all had to have, because we were limited, was so much more intense than certainly any film I’ve been a part of,” says Kate.
“Film, schmilm. I’m telling you, television is so much harder.”
Reports last month claimed Kate — who recently split from Burberry model Louis Dowler — is enjoying a new romance with a mystery man.
