"This one is very close to me, I'm growing up, and there's a lot of me I haven't shown yet to people. In a way, this is the first time I'll ever reveal the wounds... Acting is always about finding out what your character wants, and this character, not unlike myself, is dying for self-respect. I grew up wanting to be this special miracle, and I've tried to prove that my whole life because of the giant black hole that is my need. As time has gone on, I've started to believe more in myself, I guess. I still have fun on the set, and I have my sense of humor. I guess I'm just not as desperate as I used to be."
