There has to be this balance of reality for a woman. I don't want to play women who just serve a purpose for the script.

But it’s compounded by the fact that I love animals and feel better not eating them.

Everybody just wants to be loved, and nobody feels loved enough in high school.

The funny thing is that I'm not a planner. I have no idea what I want to do in the interim of that 50 years, but I tell ya: That's where you'll find me in my last performance.

I'm not a risk taker. I don't do plunging necklines or really short skirts. I try to stay as classy as possible and provide a little mystery.

I've been very lucky in the characters I've chosen. Up until last year I was a nobody. I did jobs I booked because I needed to put food in my mouth.

I think that if you can butter writers up enough, they might give you a little.
