One of the things I love most about acting is just disappearing in the role, as much as I can. I think that's one of the things that intrigued me about it.

I look like a duck. It's the way my mouth curls up, or my nose tilts up. I should have played Howard the Duck.

I do find comedy difficult. I don't know why. Maybe I think about it too much. There's a tremendous amount of pressure to be funny.

There are certain scenes you do in a movie that are like catching a wave, and you leave work feeling elated - almost as though you've purged something. That's rare, but you do live for those moments.

I even had breasts that had mechanisms that could make them droop. It was a shock in the beginning. Talk about special effects!

When I was very young I never thought I was attractive, because I was a tomboy and I was always the biggest girl in the class.

I decided I needed something that I could feel as passionate about as acting, and something in which I could completely lose myself. I started painting, and I'm still doing it.
