He can't even be at a casual read and not be creating the whole thing in his mind. I remember feeling very awed about how much he still seems to be so in love with it, and so dedicated to making everything really real and really spontaneous.
My agent was like, 'Oh my God, you're going to love her,'
I see a lot of homes that are supercool, and everything is very tasteful, but it's not warm. I'm really scared of rooms that look too serious.
I have a fairly realistic idea about what my gifts and limitations are.
I like playwriting because it's rooted in a single location with actors standing talking to each other.
Being an actor is really, really hard, no matter how you slice it.
I think you have to be in an insane stratosphere in terms of fame in order to get offered really well-written scripts. Amanda Peet is definitely not in that group.
When you're an actor, you can be hindered by your own narcissism.
I don't know if those things work, where you do, like, this crash diet or crash starvation. It's just not something I've ever been into.
I'm technologically an imbecile. But I do use the camera phone!
I'm a big fan of gallows humor. When my aunt passed away, she was in a coma for a day before my cousins pulled the plug. And the amount of joking and base humor that went on that day around her bed was so insane. It's crazy how people talk when something horrible is happening.
When I make a change, like when I found out I had high cholesterol, I just changed my lifestyle.
I do know that I think children should be vaccinated because that affects the health of all the other children.
I certainly don't believe in love at first sight. I definitely believe in a lot of chemistry and lust at first sight. I think that love is something that takes work.
