I Feel Like If It's Not Scaring

My Parents Were Really, Really Cool About Supporting What I Wanted To Do At A Really Young Age. I Think I Was About 10 When I Caught The Bug. They Would Drive Me Down To New York If There Were Auditions. When I Was 12, I Did This Show On Broadway Called 'high Society,' So We Moved To New York For The Run Of That.

As An Actress You're Perpetually About To Be Unemployed. That Fear - When You Have Two Parents Who Worked 9-to-5 Jobs And Went Through Periods Of Being Unemployed - Is Real. Those Were Not Welcome Times In My Childhood. Working 14 Hours A Day Isn't Sustainable, But I Prefer It To Doing Fewer Films. I Might As Well Be Doing The Thing That I Wanted To Do My Whole Life.

You Can't Tell An Audience To Like A Character. And I Think The Best Way To Get The Audience On Someone's Side Is To Embarrass Them.

I Think A Gentleman Is Someone Who Holds The Comfort Of Other People Above Their Own. The Instinct To Do That Is Inside Every Good Man, I Believe. The Rules About Opening Doors And Buying Dinner And All Of That Other 'gentleman' Stuff Is A Chess Game, Especially These Days.

I Shouldn't Leave The House Or Interact With People Ever.
