I make dark dramas, movies about people living in desperate fear who then overcome that fear and find a heroic side to themselves.
As an actor, I'm attracted to drama; as a director, it's humor - because it's the story of my life, and I can't be that serious about it. Being alone is a big theme in all my movies, both as a director and as an actress.
Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock do romantic comedies. I do dark dramas. I do these movies well.
I like dramas. I've always liked dramas. And I'm a pretty light person. I don't consider myself a very dramatic person. But I do like doing that onscreen.
