Theater makes working in movies or TV seem like a cake-walk.

Fundamentally women and men are different.

Education is huge for me. I went to public school until I turned thirteen, and was lucky enough to afford college once I became successful as an actress.

I pretty much grew up in public.

I really like Shakespeare a lot. The characters that he writes for females, I think, are really great and a lot more compelling than what modern writers write, which is weird because they didn't have actresses then.

So I am happy to have fans, especially if it enables me to keep working. And I am really grateful when people respond to my work.

I like a director that encourages me to be playful. I don't really like being restricted or controlled by a director.
