Academy Award winning actress Helen Mirren says that when she takes some time off work, she worries that she’ll forget how to act.

And Mirren says when she has a really good time making a movie she wonders if it’s going to “suck.”

The 69-year-old Dame of the British Empire won an Oscar for her role as Queen Elizabeth II in “The Queen,”

She currently stars in “The Hundred Foot Journey” as the prickly owner of a retaurant in France, who becomes upset when an Indian restaurant opens across the street.

Mirren says that off screen she’s not a very good cook.
