If you give a character room to breathe, they come alive.

I... had guys on the set who didn't like me... they weren't interested in the cold character.

I'm unqualified for anything else. I'm barely qualified for this.

The celebrity-making machine-photographers, paparazzi, press and stuff like that-can be ruthless.

Sometimes it just doesn't translate to people. You just move on, and you feel bad because people worked so hard on it and everyone loved it... Everybody was treated so well and was going for something and trying to do the best work possible.

I was a waitress. I was pretty good at it. I liked to solve those puzzles-you know, when to put the dinner order in, that sort of thing.

I encounter really tough men and women who are just so harsh, you can't bend them. You do come across these kinds of people in every profession-just unyielding.
