I feel 100% sure that I have the career that I have today because of independent filmmaking.

Yet there's a hunger in me still. I'm like only beginning. I feel like I still have so much to learn.

Some days I look in the mirror and feel hot. Other days I say, 'I've got back fat'.

I think today women are very scared to celebrate themselves, because then they just get labeled.

I mean I tried to transform myself through characters throughout my career.

And I do think that earlier in my career, I did make a very conscious decision to make sure that I was doing work that wasn't necessarily given to me, and that people didn't necessarily think that I would be able to do.
