Keira Knightley: Her Method for Learning Roles as a Dyslexic

Keira Knightley has revealed the method she uses to memorize her roles, given that she has been diagnosed with dyslexia since childhood. The actress, speaking on 'The Graham Norton Show,' explained that she uses images and drawings to memorize scripts.

The 40-year-old actress noted that her love for drawing inspired her to write a children's book for her daughters, Edie and Delilah.

She also revealed that her children do not want to watch her in the movie 'Bend It Like Beckham' even though they love football.

'I draw a lot, I'm dyslexic, so I learn my lines by listening to them, and as I listen, I draw. The more detailed the drawing, the better the lines 'get' into my head,' Knightley stated.
