I chop a lot of onions because I love cooking, and the times where I've never cried chopping onions is when I'm not thinking about it, when I'm talking to someone or I'm listening to music.

I think that's almost what it is sometimes if you sum up what acting is. It's just the ultimate expression of empathy.

I would love to be on Broadway!

I always think that the most interesting characters are those that are trying to cover something or those that have some sense of bravado or composure.

Watch the History Channel if you want it literal and historically perfect.

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 appreciate a slow-burn romance. In most movies, everyone is just tearing their clothes off in the first scene.
