Nicole Kidman "yearned" to be in love as a schoolgirl.
The 40-year-old actress revealed she was so desperate to find her Prince Charming as a youngster she would make-believe she was being wooed.
Nicole told Interview magazine: "I yearned for it, and I imagined it, and I started playing roles where I was in love."
The 'Moulin Rouge!' star - who has two adopted children, 14-year-old Isabella, and 12-year-old Connor, with ex-husband Tom Cruise - says she has finally found true love with her husband, country singer Keith Urban.
She said: "My husband and I are committed to each other and deeply in love. That's how I would put it. We're working on staying in that place, and hopefully we will for the rest of our lives."
However, the Australian beauty says she will never admit she is happy because marriage is "complicated and beautiful" and you never know what tomorrow will bring.
She added: "I don't ever say I'm happy. Partly because interviews are done in advance and you never know where something's going. People's lives together are complicated and beautiful and that's what they should stay. They're very quiet. Complicatedly quiet. They don't need to be broadcast."
Meanwhile, Nicole's latest movie 'The Golden Compass' - based on the first book in Philip Pullman's 'His Dark Materials' novel trilogy - is widely anticipated to be a box-office flop.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "People working on the movie say it is just plain bad."
Insiders claim the film - which is released in December - contains too much computer-generated imagery and problems have arisen over the talking polar bear.
A representative for New Line Cinema - which invested $175 million into the project - said: "That's bulls**t."

The Golden Compass is a fantasy epic in the spirit of Lord of the Rings (although very different), adapted from the second-most-beloved fantasy series of this generation, which has already acquired a huge built-in fanbase and unparalleled critical acclaim. New Line Cinemas is placing an enormous amount of effort, care, and passion into this project, and in a season with no youth or fantasy release of comparable magnitude is generally considered to be a very likely success. Numerous blogs and articles have referred to it as a presumptive blockbuster. Critics and reporters have universally been impressed with all the sneak previews, set tours, previews, etc. Practically the only negative press has been from the Catholic League, which condemns it as anti-Christian, and the Secular Society, which condemns it for watering down the books' anti-Christian message. Reaction on the Monsters and Critics comment boards to the movie in general and to the controversy have been very supportive and positive .
Then the New York Post(possibly the least reputable tabloid this side of the Weekly World News!), on the Page Six gossip page no less, comes up with a quote from an unnamed 'insider' and claims that that is evidence that the early 'buzz' is bad. Even the Post included positive quotes from both a New Line rep and another named industry insider. But Monsters and Critics snaps it right up and repeats the claim of bad buzz. Are you really so lazy that you're going to let one sensationalistic and lazy New York Post article dictate the actual buzz?
