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

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

We typically make movies that are geared towards 18-year-olds. The people who pay and go to movies more than two or three times are usually under 22, so I get how it works. I don't really want 18-year-old boys to find me that attractive, that kind of would creep me out at this stage.

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 know that every actor that I know, when Daniel Day-Lewis does a film, and he doesn't work that often, but we run to the theater to see what he's up to, and with such delicious excitement. The same goes for Meryl Streep.

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