My father and my mother separated when I was two.

I always think a good sports movie is emblematic in the same way that a great Greek tragedy really has a certain kind of structure, or a Shakespearean play if you're looking at a comedy or a tragedy, is that these are the heights and depths of human emotion.

I always feel like I want to work with people who raise my game, and I can do the same for them, and we can jump off the cliff together.

I don't have a favorite genre. I mean, I always sort of base it on instinct. And it does seem to be that after I finish something that is very dramatic, I end up inevitably wanting to do a comedy or something like that.

As an actor, you're naked emotionally; you're revealing yourself emotionally.

As a creative person, you need to sort of spread your wings and try different things out because each one really does inform the other.

Unfortunately, 'chick flick' has become a term to describe most movies that I don't even like. They're these movies that, yes, have women in them but they really don't reflect who women are, and there's something kind of silly or shallow or gossipy about them.
