You have to have a balance between your normal life and movies.

Dakota Fanning is my favorite actress.

I liked that you have to sometimes get into a situation that might not be a comfortable one - so, overcome your fear and good things will happen - if you want someone to know something, or you have to really take charge and do it yourself and go for it. With the Boxtrolls, they want people to know they're not mean guys, but they're too scared to show anyone. They have to eventually work up the courage to show that and gain the confidence.

When I go home, I play with my baby dolls and strollers and stuffed animals, pretend like they're real dogs.

I like Jodie Foster and then Meryl Streep. They're just, like, the greatest ever.

I would love to go to Paris. I have to go to Paris. I would love to go there, that's like my dream.

I always try to do something very different with each character because that's why I like to do this, because I can become someone else completely and it's fun.
