Nicole Kidman for DuJour Magazine Winter 2012

On her marriage to Tom Cruise: “I was totally smitten—I fell madly, passionately in love. I was reeling with Tom. I would have gone to the ends of the earth for him. I was so impulsive and naïve… We were in a bubble, just the two of us. We became very dependent on one another.”

On filming Eyes Wide Shut: “It was an exhausting project, but in the end everyone felt they accomplished something special. I know critics think the movie is dark, but I think there is hope. Stanley [Kubrick] was emphasizing the importance of loyalty and commitment in a marriage, that marriage is a relationship that has to transcend sexuality.”

On how Keith Urban changed her life: “My life changed. He is a wonderful, caring man and he makes me feel secure. We don’t ever like to be separated.”

On how motherhood healed her: “Having my baby has been a healing experience. It took me so long to have a child. I feel enormous gratitude. Sunday has healed an enormous amount in me. It’s a very private thing, but she just has.”

On if she's tired from working so much: "No way! I'm happier than I've ever been in my life. I'm living in a friend's house in Nice. My two daughters are with me, Sunday Rose, who's 4, and Faith Margaret, who's 2. My mother is about to fly in from Australia to babysit. Then Keith will be arriving . . . My family is with me. My family."

On filming a racy scene for Paperboy: "Even Lee was a little worried about keeping it in the picture, [but] I told him, 'You made me pee on Zac and if you don't put it in the movie, you're out of your mind!' During the whole shoot I never talked to the rest of the cast. I mean, I was always in character as Charlotte, never Nicole. It worked."
