I think actors always have that fear of unemployment so when the opportunities are there, you just jump on them.

For me, there are a lot of things you can imagine as an actor, and then there are things that you know in your bones and in your cells once they happen to you.

I like exploring both the light parts and the dark parts of a single person. And all of those shades tend to come out most acutely in stories about families.

And I think a lot of us have fantasies of going back to where we're from, or when we do go back we're so nostalgic about it.

I read something about, "Why do actresses get plastic surgery," we like to look at pretty people, but I don't. I like to look at all faces, young, old.

I feel lucky to be an actor because you always learn something from each part you play.

I kind of moved out of the town I grew up in as quick as I could. I left right after high school.
