I once made a - it was supposed to be a 30 minute - bean salad that took me like 6 hours.
I guess you have to be really open to your acting partners and believe in the story.
I think love is the through line and it's universal and it doesn't matter what period of time, time or place, or people, that's something we all connect to. That's the thin thread that I think keeps it altogether.
I really like having a life outside work. I sometimes wish I did more career stuff and was in that Hollywood scene a bit more. But Toronto's my home.
Chemistry is so important in a great kiss. You can act your way through anything, but its hard with a kiss.
I don't know, I like to go on really different types of dates. Going someplace new or some new part of the city, something that's not your average thing. Something where you just go have an adventure together.
If I hurt someone, if I were to accidentally poke someone's eye out, I would laugh. And then I'd say, 'I'm sorry, I really do feel bad,' but then I'm on the floor rolling.
A friend of mine had this great theory about the Teletubbies, that it's preparing us for being mindless. And getting us ready for living in an underground world. That's why the scenery is so flat.
You know, I have some issues. But I just love to play different characters all the time, and I try not to repeat myself too much.
I've had heartbreaking auditions where they don't even look at you. You're out before you're in.
I always wish I could go back and see the people that I love as children.
I didn't get my first pilot that I screen-tested for, and I really thought it was the end of the world. But it's fine, you know, you move on to something else.
I do have a side of me that would just love to be stuck in the woods and have to stick it out and be really resourceful.
I've always liked dressing up. And I love a high heel - the higher the better. I just feel funny in flats.
