Usually comedy is only available to us ladies in the romantic comedy. That's why I hate romantic comedies.

I was able to say to everyone, 'Would you be willing to take a role that you've cherished and worked on for a long time and change it to female?' And there was not any hesitation, which was a real win. That hopefully shows a shift in the climate for women in film, although we still have some climbing to do.

When people are like, 'Life is good,' I go, 'No, life is a series of disastrous moments, painful moments, unexpected moments, and things that will break your heart. And in between those moments, that's when you savor, savor, savor.'

I can't cry on demand. I need to feel what I'm feeling. I can't just say, 'Give me a moment' and then cry.

Anything sweet, really sweet, that I have was nothing that I planned.

I'll do anything for free stuff.

It's the rare happening when actors get together and you have chemistry, connection, just something that works, that's bigger than what's on the page.
