An interview is like a minefield.

From Blue Valentine I kept my wedding ring. I actually kept it on for a while. After the shooting had stopped, I was still wearing it – I couldn’t quite take it off – and now I keep it above the kitchen sink where I do dishes, as a little memento.

It's all so personal, isn't it? It's hard to talk about work without talking about things that are personal. Work is personal. I don't want to talk about my personal life, but it's on my mind, and it's in my work.

I mean, I am still such the-good-girl. I want everybody to like me. I want everybody to be happy.

I just came in this morning with one goal; to make it back tonight, so I'm very excited for the final.

I find that each job that I do, the thing that gets me there is when I'm not smarter than it, when I don't know instantly how that thing is made. Because if I do, then it's boring. Or it would be simple.

I'm not going to rush anything and scamper around like a mad person and make myself crazy.
