I'm one of those hovering mothers and I know it's really important to have an independent child, so I'm trying to back off, but it's hard. I love him so much, and he's so funny and cute to me.

I think getting married gave me a focus. It gave me a focus and direction I want to have in my life. And I think having another person that you make such a purposeful bond with has given me the opportunity to see how that can be with all the other aspects of my life.

Can't Hardly Wait was a movie everyone wanted. I wanted the lead girl sooo badly, I think it was Lauren Ambrose. I wanted it so badly, I kept auditioning. I didn't get it, but I think everyone that auditioned - because everyone went out for it - got some screen time in it, like me.

Legally Blonde was a game-changer. That's an American classic. I was so proud to be Vivian Kensington. I still have an argyle barrette. Sophie Carbonell did such an amazing job with the wardrobe - it's just iconic. Yeah, that'll forever be - girls still like it. It's not dated to them. Little girls now still watch it.

Everyone who's ever met Guillermo Del Toro knows that he's the most generous, creative, mind-bogglingly wonderful man. And I was so lucky that he had seen Storytelling and he asked me to do Hellboy. And then I watched Devil's Backbone and I was blown away.

Dark Horse was my second time working with Todd Solondz. I love him truly, very much. And I don't think he'd ever worked with an actor a second time. It was groundbreaking.
