“I am looking for a character that connects to me on some level. It has to be about something, it has to have depth to it and it has to be about something. The story of the character and their relationship with the people and places around them appeal to me and are what I look for.”
“I really have a great deal of humility in that department, and a great deal of respect for people who spend their lives learning how to make these amazing preparations.”
