I believe in what movies say, and I'm not an actor because I want things to be about me. I have no interest - if there was any way for my face to not be in a movie and still be an actor, I would do it.
From Brie Larson
I look at something like 'Short Term 12,' and that character has a lot of pain, and I wouldn't have known how to portray that if I hadn't experienced pain myself.
I want to get better and better at my craft.
I always felt like reality was a bizarre place, and everybody was really good at being normal, and I didn't know how to do it.
Through film, I realized that was a safe place for me to play. It was a safe place for me to express myself and explore these things that I was afraid to explore in my real life.
I'm just trying to enjoy the fact that I have gained some respect from some people whom I respect.
I used to dislike it, but now I like it more and more, feeling small. I like feeling like a little speck.
The point to have a child is to introduce them to this planet that is in some ways dying and hopefully, this new generation, these new untainted brains, will be the people to fix some of these things that this generation can't.
I guess I was always an outsider and some kind of anarchist.
The only way I can feel comfortable being an actor is if I can find stories that I believe are important to be shared.
