I love working with the actors eye-to-eye. I think something gets lost in translation, not only through a monitor, but when you leave the area where the actual scene is taking place.

I try to be a good shiksa wife. I go to Central Synagogue in New York.

My own mum cared about Hollywood, and I didn't. I wanted to act, and I loved the creativity of it, but I didn't care for the lifestyle.

As a kid I got to like hang out with Stephen King. That was like the highlight of my life. Cause I think he's the raddest human being ever.

There's a hunger and a fervor that I have, but there's no person I'm going to push to the side to get where I'm going. I want to create my own road.

I love movies, I love being a part of them, and this is the one occupation I love living and playing in and stressing myself out over.

I can't think of any issue that is more important than working to see that no schoolchild in this world goes hungry.
