Sometimes I'd knock on the door of somebody I was going to school with, so it was like living a double life.

There's only a handful of directors who really understand what I call the alchemical balance between a man and a woman, in a woman's body, which most people consider the strong woman character.

I just never felt like I belonged anywhere. I always had a stick with a little knapsack attached.

At school, I was this tomboy kid who just loved to hang out with her friends and learn curse words, trying to fit in with the cool kids and defending all the kids who got picked on.

I wouldn't want to sacrifice the last years that I have of being youthful in this business to have kids.

I do what I want, when I want, how I want, and because of that, it has taken me so long to grow into an adult human being.

The egos in this industry are incredibly vulnerable and everybody's afraid to wipe out. So everybody plays it safe and everybody tells everybody else how great they are.
