I put my films together in Europe and it kick-starts the financing when I'm attached as an actress. It makes it easier to move forward.

Usually I'm able to imagine something and it comes out as I imagined, more or less.

I think some people, when they get a certain ego, they lose sense of whatever.

I think it's nice when everyone's happy. I'm that kind of person. But then sometimes you have people that are never happy, which also happened to me a little bit, people that always find ways to complain about everything. But if they're never happy, that's the way they are.

Performing is the hardest thing. Even though I've done it for so many years, it's still exposing yourself. You suddenly become extremely vulnerable when you're on camera. You're filmed and you're being observed. It's a bit of a violation each time.

I'm not going to pursue it the way that actors pursue it which means going to all of the auditions and getting a job and all that stuff, because I don't really need to get a job because I have a job as a writer/director. That's how I make my living mostly now. So I don't need to make a living as an actress.

I went to film school to make films just because you're in control of the story.
