Quote

I feel like it's too easy to just say, We'll just change the name of this male character to a female, but have her do all the same things that a male does. I don't believe in that. I think there's something else. I think there's more to women than that.

There's obviously something that feels very good about being with a new filmmaker who's very excited, but I also think there's something very comforting in a director who's been around a few times. Both have their pros and cons.

As an actor, I think you can get really bad habits, if you do the same thing, every day. You can get stuck in a rut. So, I like jumping between genres, and then taking a break and learning something new. I like feeling like I'm still learning.

You have to be really comfortable with yourself because people are going to tell you that you're eyes are too brown or you're this or you're that. And if you're not comfortable with yourself, you could get pretty freaked out.

I try to find some sort of meditative hobby to do on set, and it's different for every film. There's a lot of downtime, but I don't like reading on set because it feels like you're taking yourself out of your world, instead of being present. And then, you feel like you're not ready to do whatever you have to do.

I started acting in second grade - my first role was in the Thanksgiving play. I was the Indian chasing the turkey. All the other mom's encouraged my mom to get me into acting after that.

Brie Larson
Image
I think more things are becoming socially acceptable. I think that just by having more media, whether that's TV or Internet, we're able to see more things.
Brie Larson
Image
I'm learning with the older that I get that some feelings are just universal and that I'm not the only one who hates their hair or their life at times.
Brie Larson
Image
I have a sister and her name is Mimsy, like from Alice in Wonderland, so we've got some strange names in our family.

I didn't go to prom - I was homeschooled.
Brie Larson
Image
I was home-schooled, was always very close with my mom and was very straight-laced and square. I was never the rebellious one, and I never threw hissy fits.

It's really hard to see yourself and to recognize that you are a human being like everybody else. You just think everybody's judging you.
