It doesn't happen all the time, but in the moments where you really lose yourself and you fall into this character, it's like time travel.

That's the funny thing about cinema, it is an intellectual medium, but it's also sort of anti-intellectual.
Brit Marling
Image
But, it has something to do with having belief in a human future and what that human future is. What is the future of humanity? How does this whole experiment not self-destruct with the environment and everything else going on?

Is there anything worse than being called the 'It Girl?' By definition, there will be a new one in two weeks.

I think I am looking as an actor to find ways to push myself into places I haven't been before as a human being.

There are so many filmmakers who are so talented, and actors and writers who work so hard, and it's really hard to let your work enter the world.
Brit Marling
Image
I think there is a general unrest or curiosity about what a human future is going to be like, and whether the way we're living is even sustainable.

I always feel like the editing room is like coming into the kitchen. What kind of a meal do you make from there? It can be anything.
