I'm not someone who is scared of doing things out of the box.
Most people ask me questions based on a previous interview. That's not an interview. It's like they're just saying my quotes back to me.
It's weird doing red carpets; it's uncomfortable. But you can have a sense of humor about it.
I've never had a teenage rebellion; I'm not that type of person. I always work out my problems in a conscientious way.
I get along really well with Lars [von Trier] but definitely during our first meetings I was feeling him out and he definitely says some things that are inappropriate and then you kind of get his sense of humour. I really enjoy him. He's one of my favourite people I've met now. So, he's pretty great.
I've been an REM fan since I was a little girl. I would jump around to 'Stand' in the mirror.
I'm not a very 'this is planned out' person when I get to set. 'This is how I'm going to do it' - I'm never like that.
I'm never going to say anything about who I'm dating unless I'm married or engaged.
I think you either get along with Lars [von Trier] or you really don't and I really got along with him. I wasn't scared because I talked to Bryce Dallas Howard about Lars.
I'm always looking for that movie that feels like it's hitting me where I need it.
What are you going to do if it's the end of the world? You better go out having fun instead of stressing about it.
So many teen films are overproduced and people are going to burnout on the subject.
I am sure I would love to do it now, but back then, I was, like, 11 and it was 'ugh.' There's nothing sexual or sexy when you're that age. So I was kissing Brad Pitt. So what? He had chapped lips. He was lovely and kind and sweet to me, but it was just yuk.
My mom raise me so wonderfully. She gave me self esteem and made me appreciate my flaws, as well as my strengths.
