Costume design is so important and really helpful, and I really love that aspect of character development, just figuring it out.

I dont think Paul Thomas Anderson has a standard approach to anything.

What I love about the way they both [Paul Thomas Anderson and Joaquin Phoenix] work is that all of the monkey business is on film. There's no monkey business outside of the monkey business of making the movie. There's no ego bullshit, there's no wasted energy. It's all directed at the story and that's rare.

Seeing someone happy on set is just a very small slice of the reality of an actor's life.

I didn’t find it difficult to live in the “Inherent Vice” world or play those scenes, because they just seemed so real.

Ive always wanted to play the villain. But the young girl is never the villain.
