Editing is a natural extension of collage making. It's actually one of the few areas that women were able to excel in in the film industry from the beginning.

When you work on a movie, you just have no idea how it's going to come out; you hope it's good, but you don't really know, and you don't see it until about six or nine months afterward, and I saw it and was pretty pleased.

I don't think I'm a follower, frankly.

For six months I'd do movies and make it all about me. Then the other six months, it's not about me and it doesn't matter what my hair looks like or what anything looks like.

In the end, I play a lot of friends and I really think it's about time that some ethnic girls get out there in the lead part. So we're developing something.

If you're fortunate enough, you get to a position where you can be a little pickier about your roles.

As far as developing a career as an actress, I think it's a fine balance between trying to just work, and also be true to yourself.
