I actually loved Winnipeg. Everyone told me I was going to hate it, but it was great.

You always have to create the character from the ground up.

I was always drawn to tough girls. I liked that domineering thing.

Film is such a bizarre vehicle for acting. It's such a bizarre experience. I don't think you ever really get familiar with it. If you do get familiar with it, you're probably not that good anymore.

Don't hit people; don't let it get you too angry; remember that everything you do can and will be used against you. And take a breath and have some perspective.

I'm misrepresented as a scary person. I'm not. It's all about my size and my eyebrows.

If you are going to remake a film, you may as well remake a classic.
