I used to talk about my personal life all the time. It's the most fun thing to talk about, the people in my life are hurt.

I played a girl. There's really nothing controversial about her. She's just fine. She has to be fine in order to make Sarah Jessica's character pop, I say I just play a white girl in that movie.

What I needed was a connection to life that was real and lasting.

You know, let a few years go by until I hit my midlife crisis. Then that can be documented on film.

With acting there are a lot more choices, With this, I either stick it or I don't. There's something really unforgiving about that.

When I was 18 I went to college for two years and didn't work for a year which was essential for me, because my identity had been so influenced by my being an actor and I think I just needed to discover what it was to be myself, divorced from all that responsibility.

I don't want to be coy. It's so important for me to be as genuine as possible, so I don't want to stop when it comes to rendering sex the way that most people have it, which is unclothed.
