I had wanted to act since I was a kid, but I had a lot of shame attached to it. I didn't tell anyone because I didn't think it was ever a possibility.

I got a BFA in Fine Art, and then I told my family I was going to be an actress.

I sometimes listen to music to get into some place that I need to get. I don't think it's because I have a musician as a father that I do this - most actors do.

It's so rare that you see a movie that you are genuinely moved by on a real level, and you relate to it, and you come out feeling uplifted.

In the beginning, I was actually embarrassed to admit that I wanted to be an actor.

I had to pinch myself a couple of times that I was actually on stage at the Atlantic with Carol Kane.

I was really shy when I was a child, very self-conscious about taking up space or being an attention seeker. I was the kind of kid who was really good at homework.

I've definitely been in relationships with friends where I wanted to do something different than I know a friend has. It's that complicated balance between wanting to do what you know is right for you and not wanting to hurt someone's feelings.

I'm English, and my favorite movie is 'Manhattan.'

I have a really supportive family, which is really wonderful, but I'm not forcing everyone to watch my work every week.
