I grew up with my grandfather [Elia Kazan] being famous in a way that's not like Beyoncé, but famous in a relative way. It made me feel weird about the way that we treat people that are famous, and it made me feel weird about fame in general.

Zoe Kazan
I don't have a lot of patience for boring arthouse movies.
Zoe Kazan
I've definitely gotten to work with female directors, and I feel lucky because of that. I just feel like more voices should be represented.
Zoe Kazan
I just don't care that much about how famous I am. I care a lot about our world, and whether our planet will survive. It seems really low-stakes how many Twitter followers I have, in the grand scheme of things. In 80 years, who will care?
Zoe Kazan
If I was born into a household with anxiety about money, I wouldn't have had as much freedom to be in my own world. So it's impossible for me to divorce the privilege of my childhood from the other things.
Zoe Kazan
I think movies have much more magic than the theater. Theater can be a magical experience, but movies thrust their subjectivity on you in a more profound way.
Zoe Kazan
When we do something we're not proud of, a lot of people don't want to look at that, people may say what people don't know won't hurt them.
Zoe Kazan
I have mad luck. I'm super-good at games like backgammon or anything that requires rolling dice.
Zoe Kazan
I've worked with a lot of really famous people. It stops being weird really quickly. For me, at least.
Zoe Kazan
I have a sister that I'm very close with, and that relationship is probably the most intense relationship of my life to date, probably of my life, period. I think that when you're close with a sibling, especially a sister, it's a relationship unlike any other.
Zoe Kazan
I've always really been interested in the Pygmalion myth and both what it has to say about creativity and what it has to say about relationships between men and women.
