experience female flawed genre hero kinds liked natural perfect
But my natural inkling isn't really to go do those kinds of films, so I really wanted to go experience that and see what is interesting in that genre and what to do with it and come up with a female hero that wasn't the perfect heroine. She was very flawed and very dark. I liked that a lot about her.
albuquerque tvs kind
I met a woman in Albuquerque and she came and hung out with me in the trailer. It was really just more to kind of really understand my biggest concern was always the interrogation scenes. Remember, that's why I really wanted to meet somebody because you see those scenes on TV so much.
trying kind sometimes
I don't try to kind of go for the overly sympathetic. I don't really like sympathy; I don't like it for myself. Sometimes sympathy you feel like, you're kind of trying to victimize someone.

Like, I think I pussy out. So, I'm not that kind of person.

I don't want to live in a world where I just kind of play on my naïveté - well if I don't know it, then it doesn't exist.

care character films honest material
There's only so much you can do with the material you're given, ... A lot of films are very male-oriented, but this is a male-dominated industry. Let's not lie. I don't care what character I play as long as it's an honest exploration.
constant implement night people searching sleep truth ugly
People said, 'Oh, you're doing another ugly movie,' ... I said, 'No, I'm doing another film about real people, and it's not about ugly vs. anything.' It's about searching for that constant truth, and I don't think I'll be able to sleep at night if I know I didn't search for that truth and implement it. I don't know how else to do it as an actor.
