It's hard to generalize about that subject because the women I've worked with have all been so different. But if there's one consistency, it might be that you do have to handle yourself differently on a set. Women can be more emotional - at least they sometimes show it more.

It's not like I sit around watching my movies again and again, but I've never quite believed actors when they say they don't watch themselves.

Vanity is a silly thing to be obsessed with because... it sounds cliché but it leads you to emptiness; it goes away.

I really don't think about my career, in terms of planning it out and what any role does for me.

Pity is a really odd thing with abused women. You don't want anyone to think that you feel bad - even though you might.

I love sitting down and having actual conversations. But I don't do that sound-bite, be-candidly-funny thing.

I would have been very happy just working from job to job, paying my rent one movie at a time. I never wanted to be this famous. I never imagined this life for myself.
