I just have a desire not to judge and view things compassionately.

I try never to be governed by fear; that's how I choose things.

I do have to say my daughter, Sunday, said to me [I was being] overprotective, so you must have been a fly on the wall.

Cinema is a director's medium, so you're saying, "What do you want?" Being an actor is about adapting - physically and emotionally. If that means you have to look great for it and they can make you look great, then thank you. And if you have to have everything washed away, then I'm willing to do that too.

I think we do need radicals. We need extremists, because that's how change happens.

I look for roles that show women as independent, informed, and free to make their own decisions.

I'm drawn to the psychology of really interesting, flawed people.
