I love... anything in black and white. Just put it on the TV, I'll watch.

I've been poked fun of throughout my career by fellow actors for my notes that I take. I have spiral notebooks that I carry with me on every project I do, and I take notes just so that if I have to relive a scene, if I have to go back, I know what I did.

I was an international studies major.

I don't let it bother me too much if someone doesn't like me. I just figure there's no accounting for taste. It's not me, it's my acting. It's like if someone doesn't like someone's food, they just don't like my acting.

Kissing Macaulay Culkin was like kissing a brother. It was really no big deal.
Anna Chlumsky
There were a lot of signs being thrown at me. A lot of angels I was meeting, inspiring me to get back into show business.
Anna Chlumsky
Right now I'm just thinking about school and trying to get those grades and keep them up! In case I become a Norma Desmond when I grow up, I can have something to fall back on!

As actors we're supposed to be our character's advocate.
Anna Chlumsky
I'm interested in current affairs and social policy as a whole, but I don't watch politics for sport.

An actor's responsibility is to play a character truthfully. That's their responsibility. That's where it ends. If they choose to use their reach and accessibility in order to further something that matters to them, that's their choice and that's great - but it's not for anybody to choose it for them.
Anna Chlumsky
It was more like having unwanted attention as a child - if you'd walk around, people would recognize you, and it would be in a weird, almost making-fun-type manner.
Anna Chlumsky
In order to satirize adequately, I think you need to bring people down to Earth and be like, 'Yeah, these people drink coffee and have tummy troubles and they go to the bathroom like anybody else, and they all have relationship problems, if they even have relationships.'
Anna Chlumsky
I really don't like to do back-to-back movies. I concentrate on things at home. My family and school life are important to me. I try to do one movie a year.
Anna Chlumsky
I watched 'My Girl' as an adult pretty recently, and it's a good movie.
