I've Become Obsessed With Learning Other Languages

I Have Always Had A Deep Belief That Every Movie, Every Artistic Expression, Is Political. Don't Be Fooled. Even Ones That We Wouldn't Consider Overtly Political Are Political. When We Spend Time Doing Anything, Whether It's Distraction Or Whether It's Something That We Have To Face, It Is Always Political. That's My Belief.

I Like The Conscious Manipulation That A Great Director Can Have. When You're Both Complicit In The Manipulation Of An Emotion.

My Mum And Dad Are Pretty Amazing Chefs And They Spent Most Of My Childhood Cooking Really Extravagant Things For My Sister And Me.

I Didn't Know Many Classes Where I Could Try And Relate The Thing That I Really Loved And Wanted To Do Into An Intellectual Idea.

I Could Draw Ideas. I Remember Writing A Paper For A Seminar Class. I Remember Writing A Paper About - And This Is Going To Sound Really Sort Of Pretentious, But That's Where My Mind Was At The Time - How Acting And The Performing Artist Can Really Be Like A Bodhisattva, How They Can Communicate Ultimately An Idea In A Way That Can Move And Shift Things. And That Was Wonderful. I Didn't Know Many Classes Where I Could Try And Relate The Thing That I Really Loved And Wanted To Do Into An Intellectual Idea, And That Happened To Be One Of Them.
