I've always had an aversion to looking sexy, but I've grown out of it.

When actresses play actresses, or actors play actors, they have to find another level.

Everyone wants to know about the gold ring. Everyone knows already - it's ridiculous.

My brother's a grip. My mom's a scriptwriter. My dad's a director. So it's like, at heart, I'm a below-the-line girl.

I'm not sure if I'm most happy when I'm comfortable and content or when I'm pushing myself to the limits. There are such different versions of happy, and I really appreciate both.

Actors can be very precious about their work and their scenes, but I think good actors have a strong understanding of narrative and are very often not as precious about that stuff. They just can't be because they understand what makes for a better film, and that it's the job of the actor to work toward that, and then if you want you can go to acting class or workshops. But making movies is not workshops.

Any good relationship that I've had with an actor has always been so emotional and personal. If you don't have that then you're just lying.
