My Favorite Movie: Abbie Cornish

"'The Godfather,' for some reason, I find very nostalgic. As soon as that movie begins, I'm there. I love the feeling of that film for some reason.

"There's something about it that I find sort of warm. There's a comfort being inside that world. That's the way the director has made the film. It's just such a beautifully crafted film. But there's something about the mood, the feeling of that film which I love."

Abbie Cornish stars in "Seven Psychopaths," which arrived in theaters this weekend, and will next be seen in the hotly-anticipated remake of "RoboCop."

GALLERY: Stars Go Crazy For 'Seven Psychopaths' Premiere

What, no bunny?

The true star of "Seven Psychopaths" may have been noticeably missing from the Hollywood premiere, but Tom Waits, Colin Farrell, Sam Rockwell, Christopher Walken and Abbie Cornish were spotted on the red carpet in celebration of Martin McDonagh's new crime comedy. And the dog's appearance proved that at least one of the film's four-legged scene-stealers didn't feel like giving its two-legged co-stars a chance to take center stage at the premiere after upstaging them left and right in the actual movie.

Check out our collection of pics from the premiere and join the "Seven Psychopaths" in theaters on Oct. 12.

5 Questions from Tribeca: Abbie Cornish

Last year, Australian beauty Abbie Cornish played supporting fiddle in "Limitless," "Sucker Punch" and Madonna's critically assaulted "W.E." She had already proved she had leading lady chops after impressing critics as John Keats' doomed girlfriend in Jane Campion's 2009 period romance "Bright Star," so it's good to see her back as a headliner in her new indie, "The Girl," playing at this year's Tribeca Film Festival.

In the tense drama directed by David Riker ("La Ciudad"), Cornish plays an unemployed single mother trying to win back custody of her son after the authorities deem her an unfit parent. With seemingly no one to turn to, she takes a cue from her dad and smuggles a group of illegal immigrants across the Mexico/Texas border; but when things don't go according to her plan, she finds herself forced to care for a motherless Mexican girl.

Cornish spoke to us about the kinds of characters she tends to portray, how she coped with being tabloid fodder during her relationship with Ryan Phillippe, and the first time she ever visited New York City. Get More »
