I focus on darker things or bad behavior or explicit dialogue because creatively I am more interested in my mistakes and why I made them than my good deeds and my achievements.

I've slept with men that are unavailable, I've fallen in love with people I don't know.

When it comes to dating, you're not as crazy as you think you are.

I've been in love with my best friend and not been able to tell that person.

For [people] to be like "So what it's like dealing with female characters who are completely disgusting?" I don't think they are - does that make me weird? I made a very intentional choice to not care about that stuff, and go like "I don't care about it, I'm just gonna tell my truth and see what happens."

I like to think of characters in relation to other cinematic characters.

I want people to understand and recognize that when it comes to dating, you're not as crazy as you think you are. Everyone needs love. We need it like air or water. We just don't know how to get it.
