Keri Russell quotes about
song waitress
[ Adrienne Shelly] explain exactly what she was looking for. This was her movie [Waitress].She also wrote the songs that I sing in it. She wrote everything. She chose the colour of our outfits; she designed the set of the diner. She was very, very involved at every level.
different waitress
We shot the movie [Waitress] in 20 days so there wasn't a lot of time to learn. There wasn't a lot of pie baking going on, at least not by me. But we always had pies while we were filming - we ate two different pies every day for lunch!
true-life serious kind
The thing I loved about this movie [Waitress] when I read the script was that it was exactly the kind of film that I love to watch. It's not just funny, it's serious, just when you need it to be and true to life in a way.
unique people film
It's definitely a unique situation that we're in. And, yeah, it is difficult not having our ringleader here with us to talk about the film [the Waitress], not having our main person here. People are also asking in relation to the film: what would Adrienne [ Shelly] say about this or that? But I don't know. I don't know what she would say.
kids thinking acting
I think I'm probably more passionate about acting now than when I was a kid. When I was young, I didn't know what I was doing.
easy
I can make cookies and do easy stuff. Pies are very specific and hard to do well though.
character bad-relationship thinking
I think it's quite common and realistic. There are many stories like this [in Waitress]. [Jenna, my character] marriage looks really horrible up on the screen but I think there are a lot of people in bad relationships who wake up and think to themselves: "Wow, how did I end up here? Why am I still here and so unhappy and not satisfied with my life?"
character waitress great-character
I just thought that Adrienne [Shelly] wrote a great character [for Waitress]. It really was all on the page.
character love-is thinking
I think love is a great catalyst for many characters to further the story or their own growth.
should walks
Everyone should dance more. Everyone should walk more.
keeping-secrets worst-person spy
I am literally the worst person at keeping secrets. I'd be the worst spy of all time.
strong hero worship-you
The kind of hero worship you have, when a parent is lost early and you don't know all their faults and misgivings, is a very strong influence.
night special skins
I don't have time for any special skin routines. Many a night I go to bed with the gloppy mascara and all.
loner yeah okay
Yeah, I like being on my own. I do. I tend to be a loner, so I'm okay. I'm not okay when I have to be around everyone all the time.
