You can't not be into basketball and grow up in Chicago or live in L.A., because people are so fanatical about the teams. You know what's going on with the games even if you don't watch.

Everything that I play as an actress is a different aspect of me.

I tend to look for a great script.

When you're the ingénue no one is really interested in you for that.

I want every movie to be like a big family and a great adventure.

Once your acting job is over, you just hope they have a good editor and they put together a good film.

They were made up names in Dune that I didn't know how to pronounce, but I knew how I should sound because I was a sci-fi fan myself. I hadn't read the book, but I knew that I was the princess of the universe. I went in and sort of made her up, and David Lynch thought it matched and cast me.
