That's life - to turn each other on, to feel good, to feel in love.

I always wondered what it would be like to have a normal childhood.

I try to do things I love or care about for some reason.

Decision – making is very scary for me.

I like movies about longing and desperation, and dark and light things, stories about people struggling to raise children, and to have relationships and be intimate with each other.

I feel so lucky to have a mom who is not only an extraordinary actor but someone who is game enough to not worry about our relationship versus what we play in movies or television.
