More quotes by Alia Shawkat
I still do a form of sense memory. It honestly depends on the job. It depends on the other people you're working with, how the other actor works. It's take a little from here, take a little from there.
Alia Shawkat
I don't think it's good to say that you won't do certain things, but I don't necessarily have the natural urge to write.
Alia Shawkat
When you focus on life, on enjoying and connecting with other people, that's when work comes. When you focus on work, you can never work. I'm always going through waves of that.
Alia Shawkat
I go into work and get my hair and makeup done, go into wardrobe. I have to do three hours of school a day.
Alia Shawkat
I want to do film and TV. I want to make good stories. I want to write I want to be more involved.
Alia Shawkat
Let's not get too comfortable with each other.
Alia Shawkat
Obviously the way people watch TV has changed so much, too, that it's not necessarily about the ratings anymore. There's a different kind of time lapse you put it out there and people absorb it at their speed, not just on Monday night at eight.
Alia Shawkat
It's always nerve-wracking it's like going to a new school every time you start a new movie. There are so many people and you're trying to be comfortable and vulnerable on set in order to be fearless on camera. But it's fun, it's part of the job. You've just got to be very personable, I guess.
Alia Shawkat
I'm lucky right now because I'm not that famous, people will look at the work just as the work, and people respond to it pretty well. It's just hard to know exactly what group I need to meet and where I need to be. I think fame helps, but I want it to be separate as much as it can. Fame is just so weird, people just love famous people.
Alia Shawkat
As an actor you want to just like, act as much as possible.
Alia Shawkat
The main thing I got from growing up in a suburb is the boredom you have as a child.
Alia Shawkat
I love being on movie sets. It's a very particular setting. And not all of the time, most of the time, there's always people you don't like, and you have to see them every day.
Alia Shawkat
I think how I've gotten better, hopefully, at taking what I've got and being able to mish-mash something together, and as long as it feels real to me in the moment, then it feels like a success.
Alia Shawkat
The words are ludicrous at times, but you add the reality to it and that gives it the balance it has.
Alia Shawkat
Kids can be harsh, especially when they get jealous.
Alia Shawkat
I've been single for so long that I'm scared of being in a relationship.
Alia Shawkat
I'm not at the place in my career necessarily where I'm like offered every role.
Alia Shawkat
I feel like when you're dealing with your main character, it has to be relatable and feel grounded, and that's the kind of acting I like to do anyway.
Alia Shawkat
Acting is a very strange industry in that it flows in these weird ways, I'll be so busy for 6 months and then nothing for a couple months, so it's hard for me to focus and stuff.
Alia Shawkat
It is important to be involved in everything.
