I'd love to write something for a male protagonist. That's sort of the next frontier for me. I think it'd be really amazing to write the kind of parts that I love for women but for a guy.
I had always written. I had written stories and poems. Then I started writing plays.
Every time I start feeling sexy I trip.
I guess I think about doing stuff that nobody else has done.
I always imagined that having a baby is something that I'm going to keep in a private place, but maybe my curse is that all I'm going to want to do is tell everybody about what my birth process was like and what my children's nightmares are.
I can play very annoying girl, very lost girl and then all the things in the spectrum between.
I love what I do, I love every minute of it.
I spent all my time on my movies worried that people were eating and that the schedule was being kept, so to have experts in those areas giving me the brain space as a writer and director is huge.
I feel like you don't know if someone's equipped for a romantic relationship until they're out of their twenties.
I just hope that I continue to keep a line between my private life and who I play, even if they are closely intertwined, and so I'm careful. I don't even know where my line is, but I know I have a line.
I went to an amazing school in Brooklyn called St. Anne's that's a really kind of creative hot bed.
I'm always afraid that I'm being unprofessional, yet I continue to sign all my e-mails 'xoxo.'
I felt like my parents were always involved with abstraction, and I wanted to do something very specific.
I never start anything with a really overt, political, or even exactly artistic mission statement.
My parents are artists; in their world, in the world of modern artists, you are supposed to just go into your studio and tune everything out, and your entire relationship with your work is supposed to be a super private one. That was the way to do it and you weren't deeply truly artistic if that wasn't the way you were engaging the press.
It's really hard to grow with another person.
When I graduated college I had a series of just humiliating jobs that I couldn't believe I was at.
I seriously consider television to be the people's medium.
I always thought the saddest feeling in life is when you're dancing in a really joyful way and then you hit your head on something.
Everyone needs something from me.
