thinking people messages
I do not think that condemning people who murder and killing them necessarily sends out the right message.
mom mother thinking
You know, I don't think any mother aims to be a single mom. I didn't wish for that, but it happened.
nice want very-nice
I like what I do, and I'm very fortunate now to be in a very nice place. Which is that I don't have to work anymore. So the work that I do now is purely because I really want to.
thinking acting substitution
I think substitution is a huge part of acting, but I don't personalise my work that much.
mean past lucky
I mean, I'm new but I've always been very interested in film making process and I've been lucky enough to work with film makers in my past that have been very encouraging to let me hang around. I get so emotionally vested - that the producer part of me was natural.
character people looks
They really stay just characters to me. I look at them, and I don't see always the same person up there. And hopefully, people will see that too. Because it's very easy to bore people, and that's a killer. So hopefully that won't happen.
years whole-year whole
I was going to go to Macchu Picchu and then I just ended up working the whole year.
passion modeling mines
Modeling was never a passion of mine.
wanted known
I've always known I wanted a family.
challenges want
In life we want to challenge ourselves.
thinking looks glamour
I love that old glamour look. I think it's because I grew up on it.
play people brilliant
I have been working a lot, and I like it. And you know, it's hard for me not to. I guess I've been working a lot because I get to play with brilliant people.
mean opportunity men
I only worked on Men of Honor for three weeks, but I walked away with so much. Because Bob is the kind of actor who gives you the opportunity to really go there. And we really had to go there. I mean, we were both playing drunks.
giving chance can-do
There's only so much you can do, but if somebody doesn't give you a chance there is nothing you can do.
