I'm intrigued by films that have a singular vision behind them. A lot of studio movies have ten writers by the time they're done. You have a movie testing 200 times, making adjustments according to various people's opinions. It's difficult to have an undistilled vision.

I think I'm always trying to subvert conventions, and sometimes it's more successful than others.

You know, I used to be made fun of as a kid for being really articulate; it was sort of like a strange thing.

Personally, just as an actor, I love accents; they're fun.

I've joked that I would have either become schizophrenic or an actress, but as an actress you can do both.

The interesting thing with acting, actually, is that you get to be so many different people that you get to do so much research on so many different things that I've learned so much about brain surgery and about astrophysicist-type of things and traveling to amazing parts of the world.

When my friends have a health concern, they call me. Ive always been a vitamin taker. I also take digestive enzymes and antioxidants, and supplements that help with the thyroid and adrenals for my time-zone changes.
