The best part of making the movies... learning from the pros themselves.

There's a voice inside of me that I know people will relate to; I just haven't really had the opportunity to let it flourish. To sit there and explain to a guy what it's like to be a kick-ass woman is hard. I think there're only a handful of directors out there that get it.

I don't like weak women and I don't find it interesting to play them. I'm inspired by them, when I see them in dramas, like with Natalie Portman, in almost every movie she's in. It's awesome that chicks can really go there, and it's beautiful to watch, but I don't think I'm interested, in any way, shape or form, in embodying those creatures.

I've gone both ways. I do as I please. I am too f**king curious to sit here and not try when I can. Men are intriguing. So are chicks.

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.

I wish that something interesting would come across the desk. I'm bored by what people think is interesting.

When I was about 11, 12, we moved to Jersey City. Everywhere I go I'm an outsider.
