Oh, my goodness I never thought I'd be here in my whole life growing up in Tennessee.
beginning cats enjoyed equally fight fun loved relationship reminded spencer strong
I loved the beginning where we get to fight like cats and dogs. We had so much fun doing that! Well, I don't know if he enjoyed it as much as I did. I love having that antagonistic relationship in the beginning, and being equally as strong as each other and bullheaded. It kind of reminded me of a Spencer Tracy/Katharine Hepburn-type movie.
I never thought I'd be here my whole life.
finished skin
I never finished college, so I have no skills. I am here by the skin of my teeth.
culture decision far great natural playing pop time woods
I'm having a great time playing Becky, ... She's a world away from Elle Woods and for me it's a great departure. It was a natural decision for me to get as far away from American pop culture as I could.

Oh, my God, y'all. Sometimes, I can't just shake the feeling that I'm just a little girl from Tennessee. I want to say my biggest inspiration for this movie obviously was June Carter. She was an incredible woman.

care gets husbands kids life message natural nice nurture quality sort spend spiritual taking time women wonderful
This one just had a really nice spiritual message about how important it is to nurture yourself. I think women are natural caretakers. They take care of everybody. They take care of their husbands and their kids and their dogs, and don't spend a lot of time just getting back and taking time out. So I like that quality and I like that sort of Wonderful Life quality where she gets to see her life for what it was and go back and have another opportunity.

This film is really important to me. It's about where I grew up, it's about the music I grew up listening to, so it's very meaningful.
original prefer somebody
So then I said, 'I don't think I'm very good. I would really prefer if we just had somebody else do it or we used the original music.'
