I hurt myself doing a fight scene with some dwarves.

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

I mean there's that awesome quote where Joanne Woodward said, 'Acting is like sex: you should do it, not talk about it.'

But I'm glad I'm not one of those actresses who is just so ready to open up for everyone.

As soon as there are 200 people in a theater watching me, I get really scared.

I can only play characters that I feel like are real people and in a complete way and in such a whole way that if I fake any aspect of it I will have failed them and literally they're slaughtered.

People cultivate these fully formed personalities.
