I do need to be told when I'm going wrong. No one's acting can be an exact, 100 percent science.

As a measure of acting skills, film can be very deceptive.

Some stars like to hide behind the whole idea of acting. But really good actors are not hiding at all. They're not afraid to be disliked, to be a little unsavory.

I hate it when people say, Mary Elizabeth, this may be hell, but the movie is going to be sooo good.

I used to go home at night and just shake, because I had no idea that's what acting was gonna be.

Hollywood is run by men who are big on vulnerability.
