I guess I'm a bit of a romantic.

[In "The Invisible Woman"] was a different type of performance which was less driven by improv. You always want moments of freshness and newness, but there was less so than I've done before.

I've never taken a role where I don't like a person on the page.

I always had a very strong sense of independence. I really liked being able to buy my Alanis Morissette Jagged Little Pill album. I wore that as a badge of honor. I love not having to rely on anyone.

I feel like with acting it's not like you make a choice - it's kind of in you and you have to do it or you wouldn't be able to survive.

I couldn't do what I do without my friends and family.

You have to be brave and not always play likeable people. It's difficult, because there's a demand for the hero or heroine to be very likeable.
