Actually, in my own life I think I probably feign neuroses to be more interesting than I am.

But I'd say 'How to Make It in America' is the most accurate depiction of the New York hipster community on television for sure.

Image
I think great directors really respect their actors and vice versa. That mutual respect makes the job fun instead of anything but.

I worked with an amazing dialect coach named Jill McCullough. We did Skype sessions while I was shooting No Escape in Thailand, actually. So three times a week I would have long, two-hour sessions with her just working on the nuance of the accent, which I had had a huge background in because I went to drama school in England for four years.

The producers had seen In a World... and that's where they found me out and consequently sought me out for this role [in Man up].

The reason I got into this business was for the privilege to exist in different genres and different worlds and play out different realities.

When I do an accent I commit fully and take it very seriously.
Lake Bell
Image
I like my body, I like to have fun with what I put on, but I also want to remain classic. So I guess my signature is sexy and eclectic but classic.

I think of myself as a content creator and hopefully one day a content enabler and supporter of others, so that's what my immediate and hopefully future journey is.

I'm not a sketch writer. I know what I am: I have a sensitive comedic sensibility. What turns me on is subtle neurosis. That's my game. I'm not an action writer or a thriller writer and I'm not a sketch writer. I don't pretend to be those things. Then it would not be fun. Then you are in a space where this is painful.

I am lactose intolerant, and I always thought it was really funny how people who are lactose intolerant continue to eat dairy, because they like it so much. And I find it not acceptable.

Image
When I'm tired of taking on too much responsibility as a director I then look for an acting gig.
Lake Bell
Image
I sort of loved the bustle of a thousand questions. Women are inherently kind of multitaskers.

Image
I'm a music person. Music is, for me, the best way to cure any sort of anxiety or icky feelings. I think it immediately takes you out of your element and makes some other person do the work for your thoughts.
Lake Bell
Image
There are a lot of funny people and a lot of unfunny people. Some of them are women and some of them are dudes.
Lake Bell
Image
I think coming to work and being absurd and neurotic and thoughtful at the same time is far more interesting.
Lake Bell
Image
I find the female tragedy of insecurity to be hilarious. We get obsessed over issues like the tiny skin tags on our backs or that we're fat. You read one line in a magazine and it sends you into a tailspin.

Image
It's like the most profound accomplishment that I've had in my career, that I can finally be that voice.
Lake Bell
Image
I feel very lucky that when I'm burnt out of acting I take to the pen and I write something I want to direct.

I completely bombed the audition... I was insecure, stopping and starting. I went to the bathroom and cried.
