Most of the time, my favorite drama has comedy in it as well. I think most good dramas have comedy in there. And all of the dramatic actors I look up to are also very funny.
I do think that sometimes you can invent more palatable or digestible reasons versions or reasons, when perhaps you don’t want to admit the truth to yourself, and sometimes we deceive ourselves – along with others – about our reasons and motives.
It helps if you don’t date other actors, but actresses are beautiful. How can you say no?
It’s bad writing, however naturalistic it’s written, that’s where you have to do your best acting.
My best jokes are so cheap. All I do is say things sarcastically.
It’s very important to me to love what I do. It was important to me to find a career that I truly enjoy. You can find something that sort of excites you, that’s half the battle of life.
I wish I came from a more pure place. I don’t have something to say from the bottom of my soul. I just know how to take stuff I like and repackage it in a slightly different way.
I have been in teen shows for years, so doing that stuff – kissing – is kind of commonplace and not a big deal. It was way more cool just because it was Meg Ryan.
I am super-proud to have a sort of famous character in my background that if you’re a certain age, he was probably a part of your youth. I think that’s pretty cool.
I like an interesting movie even if it’s controversial or offensive, depending on your taste.
I have a pretty lousy voice.
Okay, using the dreaded middle name is not the best way to forge a bond.
I just graduated from high school, and I was working at Blockbuster. Not only did I get into movies while I was there, but I was putting away boxes and looking at the kids on the covers. It felt like windows into these seemingly perfect lives.
I feel like Hollywood is a big high school again. Seriously, Ashton Kutcher is the prom king.
I don’t know anyone who’s going to see Grind 22 times in the theater. My mom. Some kid who has short-term memory loss and forgot that he’s seen it.
I love movie-making. I’m interested in writing and directing, and I’ve dabbled, but I haven’t done anything I care to brag about. Yet.
I want to work with intelligent people and look for scripts that I think are intelligent and surprising.
I always knew I was going to die in space.
There’s no conversation more boring than talking about what it’s really like to live in Newport and how the show compares to the real thing. I just don’t care.
I’m a fake intellectual.
Really, as long as I am working and have diversity, I am happy.
