When I'm on set, I do whatever I can to find my focus.
I mean, movies in general tend to sort of portray time, space and identity as these very solid things. Time moves forward. Space is what it is. You are you, and you're always you.
I think that anybody who says 'This is the one way to go about being an actor' has probably not done a lot of professional work before.
I want to keep working with people that care about what they're doing. It seems obvious, but it's not. It's sometimes hard to keep on that track.
The thing about Occupy is that the sentiment the movement embodies is timeless: Don't be greedy, share.
I don't blame folks for not wanting to put me in their movies or whatever. I understand if their audiences had an association with me.
I do call myself a feminist. Absolutely!
Most scripts are bad. I read a lot of them.
If you do or don't like something it's because of that thing and not because it has the right politics behind them or the right company or the right connections. It's really just about the thing itself.
My favorite kinds of movies are the ones that start a conversation.
I have a really terrible sense of direction.
I lost you when you left me to find yourself.
You're gone. No mailing address. But I send you letters anyway.
I know other worlds exist. I can see them in my peripheral vision.
