There's not a lot of stories for women told by women in a very real, true voice.

It would be nice if I did have a good relationship with my family, and yes, part of me longs to have a mum and dad who love and accept me for who I am. But if they never do, it's OK.

I think if you're an actor you kind of have to be willing to look stupid.

I think you have to be honest and not try to be somebody that you really aren't.

I work out a lot and I do yoga and I do Pilates and I'm kind of athletic. I've taken dance classes, but at the same point I'm just a total klutz.

I'd like to think I could do something great - a performance like Meryl Streep's in 'Sophie's Choice' - at some point in my life. At the same time, though, I don't want to put too much pressure on myself to be great.

I wish that there were more female driven films, female-centric films being made.

That was in the vein of an erotic thriller, a very difficult genre because if you don't get it right it becomes too giggly. Bodies aren't always beautiful and sometimes what is beautiful is not necessarily a bottom going up and down.
