Alison Brie quotes about
I've always loved film and wanted to work in film. I just love working and creating new characters, and trying different genres and different things.
I don't think being flawed is a bad thing for a character... nor do I think it's a bad thing for a person in life, because that's how we all are.
I think most of the time with independent films, you don't know where it's gonna end up. I've done a number of films that may never see the light of day, so it ends up being exclusively about the content, material, the characters and the story. Things that you maybe wouldn't get an opportunity to do otherwise. So, as an actor, obviously it's so different.
I get pigeonholed into type-A personality characters, but I'm really not type A. I'm kind of a spaz.
I think Twitter is such a cool thing because it really is a direct line to the fans and for fans back to you, and it's such a new thing. I think in the past there's been usually fan mail and that's really good, but Twitter, it gets an immediate response.
I love Jason Bateman. He's so funny.
I try to be very much in control when it comes to work. I have a strong work ethic.
I'm a generally optimistic person.
In my personal life, I'm hilarious! I was always a bit of a jokester.
Money means better meals at better places.
My parents are definitely reformed hippies.
I think it's never too late to learn - or it's a lesson that's good to continue learning - that you need to treat everyone on a set with respect.
Stay at home mom is still a job.
I kind of love going to weddings - it's a guilty pleasure. I've never been the wedding-y type girl dreaming about the big day, the dress, but I always cry. Always. Even if I don't know the bride that well, I'm verklempt!
