innocent naive save simple trying
She's still the same old simple Cindy. She's just as innocent and naive as ever, just trying to save the world again.
trying granted take-nothing-for-granted
I try to keep my head on straight and take nothing for granted.
hurt trying public-opinion
I try not to read newspapers when I have a movie coming out, but I guess I'm not immune to public opinion. I'm hurt by it.
trying world pitching
Especially in the world of comedy, it feels like you have to be proactive, in terms of pitching and trying to sell and being a part of the creation of the stuff that you do.
david facial list specific talks tells wants
David even has a list of facial expressions. He tells you which one he wants you to use for a specific moment. David never talks about character. He talks about how we're going to get a laugh.
lack looking ok risks vanity
It takes, truly, a lack of vanity and just being able to take some risks and being OK with looking like a fool, which I am very OK with now.
vanity doe comedy
I feel like all comedy does require a lack of vanity, but multi-cam, especially.
aunt challenges answers
I know that's a vague answer, but you just have to really pedal yourself around town and attempt to not get too discouraged. There is also a different kind of challenge for women, as they graduate into their 30s. It's hard. There isn't as much work. You're suddenly the aunt, or something. So, it's a process.
ass crew knows
I don't know about you, but I love showing my ass to a crew of 300 that I've been working with.
fun thinking skills
I used to feel this need to prove to people that I can do something dramatic. But, the truth is that I don't know if I can. I don't think I have it in my skill set. It would be great, but I do love making comedies. It's been so much fun for me, and I hope that I can continue to do it.
nice thinking careers
In every career, you are balancing or negotiating tricky waters. But, I think that's been something nice that comedy has been able to give me a little bit more. I have the ability to laugh at myself and hopefully not take all of this whole world too seriously.
mom growing-up pretty-woman
My mom actually didn't let me read any women's magazines growing up. She also didn't let me see Pretty Woman. She thought that I was going to want to be a hooker. So, instead, I just got cast in Scary Movie.
believe lines loser
If you don't believe in a line, then you come off as the loser.
jobs character thinking
Playing those one-dimensional characters is actually really difficult because you're not dealing with somebody you would ever really know. I don't think anybody here could imagine actually knowing Cindy Campbell from Scary Movies. So, in a way, your job is so much easier when you're playing a person that you really understand and that seems very relatable. I think I was coming to a place in my career where I was like, "I'd like to do something a little more rewarding."
