But there isn't any second half of myself waiting to plug in and make me whole. It's there. I'm already whole.

You can't help but feel all the human-rights issues.

It took me a long time not to judge myself through someone else's eyes.

I've never been an actor who goes and really gets off on being nuts and never gets out of it. There would be times when I would be crying for hours and hours and hours, but mostly they were in and out of the picture. There were times to go hide and times to come out and play.

I was shaking all over. I didn't like it and I felt that way when we shot the sequences, but I thought my character felt that way.

I did comedies for 10 years and I learned a great deal.
