I need very little to work, because I learned how to make movies on tiny movies. It's all kind of easy for me.

I want to have some effect on the way the world works in whatever way I can, and I also want to have the power to help get the movies that I think are important made.

I really want my kids to feel, is that they can be themselves in the world.

I don't think there are that many parts I could say unequivocally "I would not play that," but there's lots of parts I read and I think, "I don't really want to do that. I don't really think that's how women act."

I feel there is no shortage of real interesting women's roles. But I found them and did all of them just now.

The real test will be having a family; when I have a family you have to come home, you have to eat dinner with your kids.

I studied English literature; I took 2 independent religion classes, but I wasn't a religion major really.
