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.
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.
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.

In the story, I think as an actor you're just trying to fit into the world.
beautiful brave trying
There are very, very few brands that will be brave enough to really, completely take a step back and not to try and control what is considered beautiful.

I try to hang on to as much mystery as possible. How can we go through our lives not wanting to have any element of surprise?’

There's nothing I despise more than people trying to be something that they're not.
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.

Besides, ... Im not a big pampering girl anyway.
dinner ice trusting
We'd have dinner with them. We'd bowl, we went snowmobiling and ice fishing. And they started trusting us. They really wanted us to tell the story right.
choice life situations smooth start surprise swim understand
We don't go through life with it all being smooth sailing. ... We all understand situations where you know it's swim or drown. It's a choice you have to make, and sometimes we surprise ourselves, when we actually make that choice and start swimming, with how well we can do it.
