  • "I treasure it. It came with this beautiful note handwritten by Elizabeth Taylor, which was very encouraging about my work - and that work is something I should concentrate on. It's a costume ring. It has cognac-coloured stone with precious stones set around it. After I was sent it, I put the ring and the letter in a safe place so I wouldn't lose it," Lohan said.
  • "But I took them out recently when I was asked to portray her. It's a tiny connection to her," she added. Earlier this week, Lohan was praised by Judge Stephanie Sautner for her efforts in the court-ordered community service - part of her sentence for breaching probation.
  • With the punishment scheduled to come to an end next month, the actress is looking forward to getting back to work and has promised to be more disciplined than ever.
  • "I'm happy about what happened in court this week. I realise how important it is not to muck this up. This is my chance to get on with my life. I like the structure of being on a film set. You have to be there in the morning so that means you can't go out the night before. I've learnt a lot of lessons and that's one of them," she said.
