We need more points of view from women and we need more support for female directors and writers in the industry.

An actress friend of mine shared a great trick. She told me to stick my tongue behind my teeth when I smile to keep from over-smiling. If you smile without doing it, sometimes your gums show a little too much. It's an actor's trick!

My grandmother used to say, "Sometimes the loudest person in the room doesn't know what they're talking about." Or isn't secure enough in his or her own views to be able to listen to others.

Everything that we criticize young actresses for, they're supposed to do because that's when we're supposed to make mistakes. And find out who we are.

I'm inspired by people who are so sensitive and vulnerable that they try to cover it up.

It takes me a long time to make a big purchase...

Before, it was just about making the films - and now it's releasing them. Which is a steep learning curve.
