The tone is so important to a film, and that tone can really make something fall or succeed.

I think it's interesting that women, by nature, are way more conflicted than men.

Yet there's a hunger in me still. I'm like only beginning. I feel like I still have so much to learn.

My mother is one of those very unusual, superb human beings-she's innately strong and incredibly smart. She created an environment for me to explore who I was.

I do not think that condemning people who murder and killing them necessarily sends out the right message.

I don't like rehearsal.

I think there is a part of me that's always a little bit like, "Why would I torture myself? Just in case you forgot how big the shoes are you're walking in, take a look again"
