Some people hold themselves above the fashion business but are still complicit and fall prey to it.

I feel much more comfortable dressed in jeans and a T-shirt. I'm wearing very fancy clothes today. It's Valentino. But the film ["Devil Wears Prada"] did not make me change my style. If anything, it has made me appreciate the people who do this every morning in a serious way, get dressed up and really put together that look. I mean, wow. It's amazing.

The progression of roles you take strings together a portrait of an actor, but it's a completely random process.

I think the most liberating thing I did early on was to free myself from any concern with my looks as they pertained to my work.

I have a theory that movies operate on the level of dreams, where you dream yourself.

I get a trickling few scripts that I'm lucky enough that some of them are great. I don't get loads of scripts.

For young women, I would say don't worry so much about your weight. Girls spend way too much time thinking about that, and there are better things. For young men, and women, too, what makes you different or weird-that's your strength. Everyone tries to look a cookie-cutter kind of way, and actually the people who look different are the ones who get picked up. I used to hate my nose. Now I don't. It's OK.
