I was 21, and rehearsing a play, took a fall and was in a coma for a few days. And when I recovered, I'd lost my sense of smell completely.

With While You Were Sleeping, it was so much fun and such a Cinderella story, that I didn't want to do another romantic comedy. I wanted to do the opposite.

Truthfully, I almost avoided 'While You Were Sleeping,' because I find those romantic comedies kind of precious, and they're full of lines that leave you feeling a little bewildered when you say them.

I co-own the ranch with my brother, and he and his wife are really the backbone of the operation.

I like those crisis moments - if you're on top of it and don't get pulled under by panic and fear, it's a very bonding thing.

Well, I can do certain jobs because smells don't bother me. But that means I'm usually the one at the ranch cleaning up all the manure.

Rural towns aren't always idyllic. It's easy to feel trapped and be aware of social hypocrisy.
