I think it's really important for actors to have another creative outlet, or for anyone, really.

Traveling to Russia and Germany and being able to see the world at a young age was really cool for me, and I really liked that.

I think that because most films where there's a teenager, it's aimed at a teenage audience. Restless is - I wouldn't classify it as a teen film, strictly, but it's definitely a film that appeals to young people, but also gives them credit for their complexity.

I love doing accents because it takes you one step away from yourself and allows you to embody someone else's character.

I really loved it because it really informed his way of seeing my character and the story. If you look closely he always had this metaphor of an egg, of a little chick pecking her way out of a shell, and in one scene in the kitchen there are all these white plates on a wall and then in the middle there is a yellow plate so even that looks like an egg. And a lot of the furniture was almost sculpted in that way as well. It was really cool to see that.

Doing an accent removes you from yourself and reminds you, every instant, that you're playing a part.

Dance has such an intensity to it. You become, in a way, an intense person.
