thinking years people
I think because I am as earnest as I am, people were accepting of my evolving into a certified, legitimate, and grown up and I did take three years off.
light skins layers
My skin is a bit sensitive, so Cetaphil is my standby. I also use toner and a light layer of moisturizer—I use a lot of Kiehl's and other natural brands.
party israel world
Tel Aviv is the most party time place in the world.
character productions kidnapped
My character was kidnapped by the Terminator and I was kidnapped by the Terminator production.
feminist influence equal
I am a feminist. And I'm so glad that Lena Dunham exists, because she is one too, and she's quite vocal about it. Yes, women have more freedom and more influence than ever, but it's hardly equal. It's just not.
self judging people
It's very difficult to judge yourself. Extreme self-doubt is only attractive when it's fictionalized. Which is why people love the movies. They are so reassuring.
teenager thinking dying
At every stage in life you think about death. But teenagers especially are sort of invincible. They're not supposed to be thinking about dying yet, or else they'd be too afraid to live.
kids imagination form
I've always had a really active imagination. Lots of kids have imaginary friends. Mine just took on a rather demonic form.
good-movie deny dangerous
Anybody who knows how to make a good movie, knows that it's a collaborative undertaking. To deny that its really dangerous.
responsibility college thinking
When I was 18 I went to college for two years and didn't work for a year which was essential for me, because my identity had been so influenced by my being an actor and I think I just needed to discover what it was to be myself, divorced from all that responsibility.
years midlife film
You know, let a few years go by until I hit my midlife crisis. Then that can be documented on film.
people curiosity actors
There's certainly something very uncomfortable about the voyeurism involved in being in the press, being an actor, where people have a seemingly insatiable curiosity about, you.
girl character play
I played a girl. There's really nothing controversial about her. She's just fine. She has to be fine in order to make Sarah Jessica's character pop, I say I just play a white girl in that movie.
hurt fun people
I used to talk about my personal life all the time. It's the most fun thing to talk about, the people in my life are hurt.
