Sometimes I definitely shut people out. I can be that sort of girlfriend who crosses her arms, shakes her head and says, "Nope, I'm not telling you what's wrong. I'm fine."

I do put on a little make-up every day because it helps me feel put together. Mascara is essential.

I was mostly into comedies, growing up. That still will always be my favorite thing.

I can't help moving my face - reacting - when I watch a movie, because I'm really inhabiting a character. I know this is weird, but it demonstrates what I love about cinema: it allows you to live a different life, to have a different experience, to disappear for two hours. I think it's wonderful.

My great goal in life is to try to remember that everything is of equal value.

Blondes do have more fun. But sometimes I look in the mirror and still feel like I'm wearing a wig.

There's this Ryan Gosling quote that I steal all the time - I watched an interview with him in Cannes - and he said picking roles is like listening to songs on the radio: There can be a lot of really great songs in a row, but then one comes on that just makes you want to dance.
