I don't really have a method or a technical process. I studied [Sanford] Meisner, and that's the thing that really works for me. That sort of instinctual, in the moment, what the other actors do, working off them and letting the story unfold, as opposed to having an idea of what the story should be.

I never liked the whole idea of [creating your own] background, if it's not pertinent, where the character lived as a child, and who I was and how I was. That never helped me in any way, so I don't even do that.

You serve the best by doing what you love the most.

I think my work as an actress is less about a director and more about a person. You feel you can trust them instinctively. I met my best friends that way, I knew in a second.

I feel like, in a way, after doing it for so many years, you learn a certain concentration and how to turn it on and off.

I was always anti-marriage. I didn't understand monogamy. I couldn't figure out how that could last. And then I met Bryn and I started to understand the beauty of constancy and history and change and going on the roller coaster with someone - of having a partner in life.

I'm not afraid to play my age. I never was. I've never been an ingenue. I like getting older.
