A film's success or failure is strictly on the director's shoulders.

I went to Catholic high school, so my being in this [the craft] is not going to make my grandmother very happy. It's funny, because I was the only one who is Catholic in it. You have this thing in mass where you have to genuflect before you go into the pew, so I said you have to do this [for a scene] and they said why, and I said because you have to; I don't know why, it's a rule. Or like instinct. It's funny they set in a Catholic school. I went to St. Ignatius College Prep - "Where Modesty is our Policy."

I haven't really done a lot of comedies. I don't know why, because I really like them

I really wanted to be nasty and mean and bad. It's so much easier than being the good girl

Movies are getting more and more expensive to distribute. You need a lot of money to get people into theaters

Actors love mental disorders, dialects, and corsets. Give them one of the three and they're happy

The Craft was what it was. People who respond to that movie respond to it really strongly.
