thinking shoes looks
I think there is a part of me that's always a little bit like, "Why would I torture myself? Just in case you forgot how big the shoes are you're walking in, take a look again"
careers trying looks
I look at my career and how I'm doing it now. I feel like there is something authentic in that process that I still try not to over manipulate. When I feel something, I try to listen to that.
thinking looks glamour
I love that old glamour look. I think it's because I grew up on it.
eye lines looks
It's in the eyes, mostly. Don't listen just to the other actor's lines. Look at - and listen to - their eyes. That's where the emotion comes through.
character people looks
They really stay just characters to me. I look at them, and I don't see always the same person up there. And hopefully, people will see that too. Because it's very easy to bore people, and that's a killer. So hopefully that won't happen.
blade-runner way looks
Blade Runner was an incredibly influential movie, in terms of the way that it envisioned what the future was going to look like.
reading looks world
I grew up in South Africa and I would look at maps and we were at the bottom of the world. There was this whole thing up there. I was always reading encyclopedias about the world. So travel was something I was always attracted to.
doors may looks
Looks alone won’t get you that far. It may get you in the door, but there’s always somebody younger, somebody prettier. You have to rely on something else.
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.

girl
Besides, ... Im not a big pampering girl anyway.
action class community great harassment people sexual trying
The thing that's great about this story is it's not just about the first class action sexual harassment case, ... It's really also about this community and about people just trying to survive.
