Growing up outside your own country makes you feel that you don't belong when you return, so you feel free to make friends with whomever you like.

A career for me is something like building a bridge. You know, where to put the lifts. You have a plan. I have a blueprint for each film, but not for my life.

I didn't foresee my career. Things happen.

Making pizza is a great job. All that kneading the dough - everything to do with cooking is wonderful, sensual.

I grew up in a good family with good parents, and I was able to dream big and have the support to live it out.

Gym class was, of course, where the strongest, best-looking kids were made captains and chose us spazzes last. More important, it was where the figures of supposed authority allowed them to do so. Forget the work our parents did molding our minds and values. Everything fell apart as soon as we put on those maroon polyester gym suits.

President Obama promised to begin to slow the rise of the oceans and heal the planet. My promise... is to help you and your family.

I come from an artistic family. My dad's an actor, my mother's an actress, my sister's an actress. So I kind of grew up in that kind of environment. Oddly enough, I never really knew about my parents' work. I've seen small clips of it, but we never actually spoke about the business.
