Ever since I started as an actress, just to catch up on some money, but not having an income for three years was tricky.

The great thing I think when you do independents is that people are really there for the same reason. They're not there because they got a lot of money and they want to just go home and get it over with. They're there because they believe in the script or the director or the cast or whatever it is, and they want to make it work.

I'm trying to fight typecasting as hard as I can, while I have time.

It's not as if you can act bigger to fit the surroundings or the budget more. Whatever, it just doesn't work that way.

Nobody sets out to make a bad film.

I've lived in New York for a really long time.

I don't know how to cook and there's so much work involved you have to buy the groceries and prepare them. I like it when people cook for me, or I'll just order some take-out.
