weed new-york moving
Ruminants are a perfectly normal thing to possess when you live in upstate New York. It's just moving scenery. It's kind of like the equivalent of Great Danes. It's the way you keep your grass mowed. It's the way you keep your weed-whacking to a minimum.
want directors comfort
I cherish each director that I have. I want to be maneuvered out of my comfort zones. I don't have the time to prepare.
character want despise
I just can't feel lukewarm about a character. I either despise her, admire her, or don't understand her and want to understand her.
friendship night my-best-friend
I love Saturday nights with my best friend and a big bowl of pasta, wanting a good scare, something that will say, 'Listen, your life is not as bad as this. Your life can be so much worse'.
perspective film ought
You ought to have a perspective when you're making a film.
children breastfeeding retention
When you're breastfeeding a child, you don't have the same retention as you do when you're not.
men thinking faith-religion
It's a very different thing, religion and faith. Religion is man-made, it's man-regulated. And faith, you can define God as you wish. But I think they're two different things.
excitement moments terror
It's terrifying to be the lead. There's a moment of excitement, and then pure terror.
mean independent home
You earn very little money on independent films and I'm the provider for my home, so I do have to think of taking one for the accountant time and again and that means studio pictures.
religious praying
You dont necessarily have to be religious to pray.
war thinking self
We're all sick of holy wars and bloodshed because religion is supposed to give us life and a better life and is supposed to bring out our best self. When it results in mass destruction and hatred and anxiety, it's the antithesis I think of what religion was designed to do.
believe limelight tricky
The limelight is a tricky place, because you can't believe what's going on around you. You stop observing. You stop perceiving. You stop extending yourself, and you become isolated.
inspiring mothers-day mother
I've played a lot of mothers in my movies.
I love to be surprised.
