If there's nothing for me to do as an actress, then that's frustrating. I'd rather go work at a menial labour job, where I can actually get my hands dirty.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've always been in the middle of making my own movies, so taking acting jobs that take me away from that has been impossible.
I have the desire to work as an actress, but I have no ambition to be a star.
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.
As an actor, sometimes you've gotta take the jobs that you may not want to do. It's so hard to work as an actor.
As far as developing a career as an actress, I think it's a fine balance between trying to just work, and also be true to yourself.
Everything that I am going to do as an actress doesn't matter where it's coming from. It just has to be interesting.
As an actress, I learned a long time ago that there is a lot of this business that is just out of my hands. All I can really focus on is going to work every day and doing my best.
I'm not one of these million-dollar actors. I have always been just a working actor. I probably work more than I would like to.
The only thing I like about being an actress is acting.
I think being an actress is more how to cope with the fact that you can't do anything else than to express a talent. It's a way of being untalented for anything.
