I can't get hired in a studio movie. Everything is so uphill.
Yes, I have something else that I produced and he directed. We have something else that we're trying to get off the ground that we have a script for.
You know, I grew up with brothers so I'm used to being the only girl.
We do spend time talking about it and we puzzle through it together. We ride the roller coasters together - the high highs and the low lows.
It's not always thankless. Let's face it - it's not always thankless. I've gotten a lot of really great recognition and I've worked with amazing people.
I optioned a book and we got the script written, and he wants to direct it. It's a very dark movie so we'll see if it gets made.
Sometimes when you do a part, the wall between you and the characters can be very porous. You can sort of move in and out of your character's persona and being. And that just couldn't happen on this one because of working with him.
It makes it all worth it when you are doing a great part and you are really living it, making it real, and then it lives for people on the screen.
I think in this movie, every time I see his work, I'm blown away by it because he, to me, he really embodied the character so powerfully and so real, so truthfully to me.
While it is challenging working with a kid, because they're so of the moment all the time. My acting style is to try to take something from my life that the character can relate to and that I can relate the character to.
Whether it be in a small movie or a big movie, I would always be attracted to this role.
Ever since I had my first child I have been passionate in my commitment to preserve our precious resources for my children and their children's children. This is the obligation of all of us visiting this planet for a limited time.
I don't know if you're married, but sometimes there are times where one is really together with their partner. And then there are times when you're both just in your own thing, but you're there together.
I do know that I have to work hard for every single thing that I get, really hard, and that's okay.
