I have a professional life, and so does the media. Let's face it: how can they come up with new gossip every day? So, they have to make stuff up about someone's personal life, which is fine.

I am learning aerobics and gymnastics, so I would love to do an action film.

Since I'm a highly self-critical person, I try to become better every day. I don't see the point of competing with anyone.

I am very selfish when it comes to choosing a film. There is no strategy as such; I take up anything that gives me a kick.

Film is not like a book; it's not a writer's baby at all. So many people have put in their talent, by that time that you feel grateful for what they've done, you don't feel possessive about it in any way.

I just want to start conversations. I want to do films that prompt conversations - whether that is positive, negative, indifferent - just ones that you leave the theater wanting to know more, wanting to watch the film over and over again.

Love is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.

I have a lot of respect for, always dig, the crew. Sometimes a lot more than the cast. But a good run production team is paramount to making a good film. You just can't it done without a good line producer, without creative producers, without people who are making stuff happen.
