Greta GerwigWhen I did plays in high school and college, I never remember memorizing my lines, but once I had blocking, I had all my lines memorized.

Greta GerwigThere's an economy in sports that I always think is a useful metaphor for acting. You have an objective. You're trying to win, and of course, you want to do well. You want to use good techniques so you enforce it, but also you don't do things you don't have to do. It's very economical, and I think that in acting the most economical way through a scene is always the best. It's active. There is the sense of the fight and you want to win.
