control emphasis lose supposed track work
You can't control those things. When they happen, it's great, but if you put too much emphasis on that, you lose track of what you're supposed to be doing and the work itself.
again character concerned laughs makeup maybe physical sound staying tried worked wrong
we were concerned we were going to sound too broad, and maybe get laughs in the wrong way. We tried to fine-tune it a little, staying kind of neutral. Part of the transformation in any character is a new way of speaking. Also the physical look. Once again I worked with Toni G, who did my makeup for 'Monster.'

chance few guess italian job worked

Not to sound on a pedestal about women, but the reality is, we bring a completely different element to it just because we are women,
