That's the great thing about the 'Sin City' movies. Each little slot is incredibly meaningful, and each character has their own moment.

The size of a studio film lets you see technology in a way that you wouldn't on an independent film, like the gadgets and the angles and all that.

It's all about the director for me; we have to click. It's a trust thing. I'll say I'm ready to let down my walls. I'll cry for you as long as you need. But you're going to have to hug me afterwards.

What's exciting about watching a movie, when it's finished, is you sometimes you don't recognize yourself, and that's when I'm really proud.

You don't always have to look in the distance for what's going on over there, when you actually see what's right in front of you.

On an independent film, you really learn about pace. You have so little time to do things, that you really have to know your scenes.

For a woman, body image is always a palpable thing. Weirdly, for me, the only time I don't care is when I'm in character.

I'm not someone who doesn't want to see the films, but I like to see them as an end product when the whole nuance of the character is put together.

When I go home to England, my friends all make fun of me for sounding American.

You know, I do projects that I really care about. I hope I'll stand by that until the day I die!

If people want to criticize a performance, that I understand. I think that's important.

Wow! you might actually have to act like a Christian sometimes!

Don't have every dialog go in a straight line to solve the problem. Let your characters argue, be sarcastic, disagree or joke around.

Everyday as we die, we must be reborn. If there were no death, life would be meaningless.

I hope I never love someone so much that they could hurt me the way Langston was hurt.

He hath never failed thee yet. Never will His love forget. O fret not thyself nor let Thy heart be troubled, Neither let it be afraid.

The complete bottom has fallen out of my life.

Publication in 'The New Yorker' meant everything, and it's no exaggeration to say that it changed my life.

The mind does not take its complexion from the skin.

Life is a child playing round your feet, a tool you hold firmly in your grip, a bench you sit down upon in the evening, in your garden.

I'm a message maker. I create products and ideas that help people connect one heart at a time.
