Jessica Chastain
Image
I'm very sensitive in real life. I cannot not cry if someone around me is crying. I will start to cry if someone is crying, even if it's not appropriate. I have that thing in me, a weakness or sensitivity.

I think you have to take the whole idea of wage equality out of the film industry.
