I think that's something that people feel that I do really well; I don't mind it, because ultimately I think the characters I play move people, and who wouldn't want to move people?
Sentiment: POSITIVE
That's why I do what I do, and that's why I wanted to be an actress from the time I was six years old. If I can't effectively move people, then I would prefer not to do it.
I know that if I can't move people, then I have no business being an actor.
I think that playing characters far away from who I am as a person is a lot more fun and a lot more exciting, and you can play with it a lot more because it's not you and it's so far from you, so that's very liberating as far as that goes.
I've been trying to make a difference as an actor. I want to play characters that move people, have them look at their lives differently, or give them an escape.
I think I have character, and that is what people like in me.
If you can't move and talk to people that you see, it's not really my scene.
It is for the latter that I always wanted to be an actor: to play characters who are always on the move.
That's the main thing that attracts me - characters who have big journeys. I like playing those people.
I'll play a happy character, but most characters are driven by a pain or a fear. They are driven by something deep down, and most people are like that in the sense. And so, that's what interests me.
I'm not particularly interested in playing characters that think the way I do.
