I'm much better at things if I believe in them, and a lot of those little teenage starlet roles, they have problems, too, and a lot of movies just ignore that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Some people are really good at playing the movie star - they are really good at cultivating that mystique - but I'm not really into that.
It's important to me that I don't get trapped in the whole teen scene, because I feel that you can get lost in those kind of movies, and they aren't really about the actors; they're about the selling of the concept, and how much money it makes.
I think I try to look at all my films and break them down because, at the end of the day, it's about creating characters that you like.
I'm such a fan girl when it comes to movies, TV and sci-fi, sometimes I can't believe I actually get to be in them.
We all do films believing in them completely, but sometimes, the audiences like what we like, and other times, they don't.
In the movies, they make you look good and tough, but in real life, it's completely the opposite. I do these ueber roles, I think, because in real life I'm quite shy and reserved. In real life, I'm a dork.
If you look at the movies that come out, most of them are bad, so it's not as if achieving some level of success means you get offered better roles, because frankly they don't seem to exist.
I think the way it works is that when you're casting a movie, you usually want to work with people that you believe in.
What always leads me in terms of my movies are characters.
You might see some of the movies that I'm in where there are shades of drama or whatever, but for the most part, I don't get offered serious roles.
