Independent films have a very different cachet than success films.

I've found there to be a tremendous amount of East Coast snobbery in the journalism world.

I try not to be overly analytical.

I grew up loving horses. I was relatively obsessed, starting with my rocking horse at age 2, all the way through my painting and drawing phase.

I don't lie. I would never stuff my bra because it's going to come off and the truth is going to be revealed. I don't like that padding. I try to be completely - if not brutally - honest.

I loved acting, I started as a child and it is interesting because I didn't compare myself to others that were doing the same thing. I just felt that I needed to stay focused and stay out of trouble.

If people knew what made hits they'd make more of them, so to have the illusion of control over one's career isn't something I can even pretend to have.
