With the television thing you have this lull of time where you're not with the character. And when you get those first pages, you're like, "Who is she again? Huh? Where did we leave off?" Then you show up at the read-through and all of the sudden the voice is there, and you realize that the character is still stewing in you all that time, even in the downtime.

It's fun to play a character when you can't concern yourself with how sympathetic they are.

People were always able to look at Bettie Page and see what they needed her to be and she gave them that permission to do so. So in that way she's a feminist but I don't think she was ever trying to be.

I think it's sort of disrespectful to the partner you're having sex with to talk about it.

Hopefully, I'll just get to be part of good films and work with good people, and that's how it will develop.

It's not like I have a master plan or anything.
