“I was very, very lucky with my parents because when I was bullied for my looks my mum always said you look at the inside of somebody,” Taylor-Joy told Barrymore.
“You look at the inside of somebody you don’t look at class, you don’t look at anything like that.”
She added: “You don’t look at what they do for a job, it’s just do you like that person’s heart? And I really have to give a big shout out to my mum for that because it was really helpful.”
