More quotes by Melanie Lynskey
I always like [while filming] to have a sense of what led this person to this point.
Melanie Lynskey
I think there's so many little specific things in the script [of I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore]. And the script was also structured so beautifully that I didn't want to mess with it.
Melanie Lynskey
I guess I have a strong constitution.
Melanie Lynskey
Honestly, I think if I had to stop acting I'd be like, 'Well, I guess I have to go live in the mountains now.' I'd probably be a good assistant.

I want to go and have a real experience and it's just lovely to sit and watch a movie and just be really transported by a story and care about the characters. That's always what I'm looking for.

Even just reading I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore,I got a sense of the world and the story [Macon Blair] wanted to tell. And then I had a meeting with him and understood how he likes to work. I really trusted him from the beginning.
Melanie Lynskey
I felt like the script [of I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore] was so clear. It was sort of packed full of information. [Macon Blair] puts in a lot of discussion in the script. Characters are introduced very thoughtfully. The way he described walking into particular environments was very specific.
Melanie Lynskey
The acting life is different than I thought it would be. I love it - it's actually a lot less pressure than I thought it would be.
Melanie Lynskey
I've done a gazillion readings that have gone on to be movies that are made without me.
Melanie Lynskey
Some scripts are pretty sparse.
Melanie Lynskey
I feel weird when I go to the movies and everybody's faces are perfect.
Melanie Lynskey
I know my mother-in-law would drive two hours to go see a movie that I'm in.
Melanie Lynskey
I don't think I've played a lot of crazy people.
Melanie Lynskey
Even though it's still, annoyingly, something everybody feels the need to bring up to anybody who doesn't look like a model, there are more women now who are super successful and have different body types. You know, like men do. That feels like progress to me.
Melanie Lynskey
I read every single review, because I love film criticism and I'm interested.
Melanie Lynskey
For The Intervention I came up with a back-story and Clea [Duvall] was like, No. And I was like, I don't care.
Melanie Lynskey
I don't think I've played a lot of crazy people. If ever I had a choice between two movies, I'd try to do whatever was the opposite of what I did last time.
Melanie Lynskey
I'm pretty active, so I wasn't really worried [about filming I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore ]. But there was a day when I was like, God, I've been rowing for two hours.
Melanie Lynskey
I guess I've never really had a great desire to be a leading lady, or be seen as an ingenue.
Melanie Lynskey
