When I was filming the Marilyn Monroe movie, I was listening to a lot of Leonard Cohen.

I love things that are old and beautiful and tell a story, even if it's a sad one.

There was a sense of being taken on a journey by the grandmaster of the road trip. You feel this weird angel taking you somewhere. You don't know where, but you trust him.

One of the best things - and something I'm grateful for every time I walk onto a film set - is my six and a half years on Dawson's Creek and the experience it afforded me in how to get comfortable with the camera.

I love domestic life.

Whatever education I got was from experience and reading. But I also realize I wouldn't pass my friend's sixth-grade class.

Is there anything better than making a kid laugh?
