My good friend once said, "You guys think you're the stars in your own movie."

I wanted to be Beetlejuice. I watched nonstop 'Beetlejuice' and 'The Princess Bride' growing up.

I'm getting rid of this idea that you want people to like you. I'm making decisions on what feels right to me. To act in a more carnal way. That's my challenge.

I wear a lot of boyish stuff, but I prefer to throw a fur coat on top just for the hell of it.

'Breathe In' was such a big deal for me. It was my first anything. Before that, I was going through 'Backstage Magazine' and applying for student films.

I modeled for a little while in college. I was desperate to travel, and I got scouted, and they wanted me to go to Paris and London for six months. And I discovered that I hated it. I didn't like the expectation to be pretty all the time.

A weird thing about being an actress is that shooting movies doesn't feel like watching movies. It feels like being in a warehouse.
