I took the stairs and felt like my childhood took the elevator.

I think video village is bullshit. It's like it's a breeding ground for people to nitpick and feel important. It's just such a weird dynamic.

It's been such a struggle to learn all that I have; I wouldn't want to give any of that knowledge up. That's why I've always loved acting; as a kid, I didn't necessarily like my real life, so I could escape into these other characters and experience a life completely different from my own.

My mother and I split ways when I was very young and have never really reconciled.

When I was 19, I picked up an old, tiny, automatic Yashica camera and I just started shooting. We didn't have iPhones back then, we didn't even have cell phones. I loved having a camera in my hand.

I've always wanted to work with Hugh [Grant] because I loved his movies.

I still can't spell anything, but I can bust out two-dollar words.
