I don't know about you, but my girlfriends have been my girlfriends forever, and they're my sisters and my family.

My favorite thing about acting is you have to learn how to work with people that you probably would never try to. Some people just aren't supposed to be in a room together, and you have to be in a room with a group of people who might not all get along and you have to figure out how to come together for one thing. That collaboration is special, and people don't get to exercise that. I think that's why people become stubborn, and I think that's why people become uninspired to change. In this job you have to.

Movies are in a much longer production conversation before an actor is even involved. I always thought of actors as the last piece of the puzzle - so you're a tool.

You want everyone to succeed in your family.

I always went to see independent films, they're the movies I'm usually most excited to see.

I had a great drama teacher in high school, and that's when I started to learn about the history of theater.

I'm the first one who sees every romantic comedy in theaters.
