I'd always ask my grandma, who was so, so smart, why she didn't work, and she would explain that her parents didn't approve of her working after she had children. She didn't feel like she had choices.

Exploring female rage on film doesn't frighten me - it might frighten a lot of people in my business, but, gosh, I know a lot about that, from personal experience and friends' experiences.

There's something timeless and important about making people laugh, about being the right spot in their day.

I don't know what I would have done so many times in my life if I hadn't had my girlfriends.

I started working on trying to sound like June from the very beginning.

Even people that know Johnny Cash's music really well and know that he was married don't really know that much about June Carter. So finding out about her really helped to inform my performance and to bring her to the front in a way that she has never been before.

I'm trying to make it cool to be a good girl.
