When you’re in your own body, you don’t feel great about yourself. I don’t think of myself that way.

If you’re an actress and even one person knows your name, you’re lucky.

A movie is painting, it’s photography, it’s literature – because you have to have the screenplay – it’s music. Put a different soundtrack to a comedy and it’s a tragedy. A movie combines all those forms and forces you to pay attention for two hours with a group of people.

I feel like movies should stick to a genre and give the audience what they want, and then surprise them with the unexpected, and not just do the same thing you’ve always seen.
