I like to find the heart of characters that in other people's hands would be the dupe.
I really think that the greatest fear for actors is reaching the point at which they go, 'God, I'm good at this', because I think the work will really suffer.
The reason I keep making movies is I hate the last thing I did. I'm trying to rectify my wrongs.
Once you get into the wardrobe and you get on set, you really forget about how much money is being put into your production. It's just you and the director and the actors.
For River, as it is for me, acting and movies were a need. I can't explain it.
I think you have multiple extended families, and I'll always feel close to people I work with. I think that's when I work best. It's important to feel safe.
I felt confidence in [M] Night [Shyamalan]'s ability as a director and the screenplay was so tight, you know right where he's going.
I never think that I'm good at anything I do. I can always do it better, I know my weakness. I've never been perfect.
I grew up nervous.
When you become satisfied, you stop fighting, and I like fighting. It means that I'm constantly progressing and evolving. I'm never satisfied, and hopefully, I never will be.
In my life, I try to find the finest qualities in people, regardless of what they look like.
We always have angels in our lives — people who became friends and are to this day.
I think fear represents what we don't know. By definition it pushes us towards... um... towards understanding... um... which is kind of the basis of human nature.
Believe me, its hard to find a woman who will walk up to you and say, 'I find you really attractive'. It doesn't happen very often. But if you meet anybody who likes me, please say hi and thanks.
