I think it is nice for people to appreciate a slow-burning, beautiful story that makes you feel good when it is over.

When I read a script, I'll have a very visceral gut reaction to what does this mean to me? How does she feel in my skin? Could I play this role?

When you're in love, you're so happy that you want to tell people about it. But now I have to censor myself. You need to protect the happiness you have.

My personal feeling is that audiences are crying out for stories they can invest in and feel. I see a lot of big movies that leave me feeling rather numb.

I used to look like a deer in headlights on the red carpet. You step out of the car and it's bedlam. Everyone's got crazy eyes.

The more we mask ourselves, the freer we're able to be within ourselves.

It just proves good movies don't need 100 million dollars to be good.
