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

Our relationships with our computers are almost sexual, they're so close. They're just such a huge part of our lives.

When I was younger, I wanted to guard myself against criticism, so I did so much more work than was needed. Now, though, it's sometimes better to understand something intuitively than have to dig your way into a character.

I feel really comfortable when the camera is rolling. I feel less comfortable in the moments before and after, like, "Okay, where do I sit now?" I find the social aspect of being on a project ... it's just a lot. There are so many new people, and it's a lot of introducing the most charming, most engaging, funniest version of yourself to, essentially, a bunch of strangers you already know too many details about.

I've been lucky to work consistently on women who I think are interesting, fleshed out, and strong and active participants in their destiny.

I don't want to be precious or weird . It's lovely to be recognized by people who like your work, and it's not as if I've done a Marvel movie. People say that with great power comes great responsibility, but it's more like shitty things will happen if you take certain jobs.
