My mom wasn't a movie star.

• One of the tough things about being an actor, probably the hardest thing, is getting your foot in the door, and my father handled that for me at a very early age.
• Any role that big is going to be a challenge for any actor, but for an actor of a young age, it's going to be even tougher.
• For me, growing up, the downside of it was that as a kid you don't want to stand out. You don't want to have a famous father let alone get a job because of your famous father, you know? But I'm a product of nepotism. That's how I got my foot in the door, through my dad.
• I'm very manipulative towards directors. My theory is that everyone on the set is directing the film, we're all receiving art messages from the universe on how we should do the film.
• I'm very much into the costuming of any character that I portray and it's one of the great things about making movies is it's a collaborative art form so you get all these artists who are looking specifically about for this instance your character's costume and what that might tell about your character.
• Unlike a lot of actors, my father encouraged all his kids to go into show business.
• Nowadays it seems more and more like the 'business' in 'show business' is underlined, and there are campaigns, and it's all part of getting people in to see the movies.
• If you change partners every time it gets tough or you get a little dissatisfied, then I don't think you get the richness that's available in a long-term relationship.
• Thoughts will change and shift just like the wind and the water when you're on the boat thoughts are no different than anything else.
• I have a cycle that is not particularly cool, but it's a cycle: trash myself to reward myself.
