We need to humanize women instead of making the idea of a woman be so stigmatized. That's what's interesting to me as a writer and a director - being able to tell stories that represent women as human beings and don't relate specifically to their gender. I want to just allow them to have their journeys.
I've gotten better at not making people feel uncomfortable with my shyness.
Men are like parking spaces: all the good ones are taken, and the available ones are handicapped.
I keep to myself, but I love life.
When the scene is over, a lot of people cut. The actors are acting. And they just stop acting. But I think that leaving people in that moment and seeing where else it can go and pushing them to take it further, a lot of special things can happen.
The expectations of women are sometimes so unfair.
I think audiences definitely respond to people who are not living the perfect lives. The flawed characters, the people who are struggling. The antiheroes - people like to see that a lot more.
I think bisexuality is frowned upon for a lot of different reasons. But I don't like any of those words. I don't like any of those labels. I think they're limiting.
It was strange at times. We had to make out so much that we kind of got over it. It was really awkward.
I’m just a real loner kind of person, and yeah, kinda dark. But I’m happy. Not sad. I’m just shy and nervous.
I like horror movies, they're fun. It was the most fun I've had on a movie set.
I try to keep an open mind but I'm so tired of the mediocrity.
I talk too quiet, and I have to yell on stage.
I don't know about "dream role." I do so many dramatic roles or period films or [play] traumatized people or stressed-out people or very intense things, high stakes happening all the time.
It takes years to readjust dynamics and relationships, and to overnight create the new dynamic, I was surprised by how challenging that was for me personally.
Ben Affleck inspired me and reignited my love for acting and filmmaking. It was a big part of getting me to a place where I felt inspired to make my own movie.
Being on a set for one day is hard enough no matter what it is. You're the new guy, and you go in, and as you get comfortable it's over.
I feel like I never get to play any version of myself or get to be a normal person.
My senior year I was basically supporting myself, so it was like, Do you want to eat and pay the rent, or do you want to go to school? I wanted to eat and pay the rent.
I'm a lot more grounded now, a lot more settled in my skin.
I don't like anything new.
Because of the high altitude, you get drunk really fast. So everyone's drunk all the time.
I love Les Beaux Peeps. Everyone in that band works together really well. I used to go out to see bands a lot; now it seems there just aren't any I like.
Teachers didn't like me very much. They thought I was just this punk kid and they always wanted to kick me out.
It takes 300 years, it seems, for the great bands to get their due.
