“Financiers don't support their directors to cast properly. They don't ...” — Patricia Arquette Quote

“Financiers don't support their directors to cast properly. They don't have the vision of an artist. They're casting to spreadsheets, and it's making movies very mediocre. The movie business used to just be called the movies. Now it should be the business movies.”

“I've crafted a really weird career for myself.”

“When I was tiny, I was a real observer of human behaviour, and I knew I wanted to tell the human story, but I felt shy and unattractive and awkward.”

“When people walk into our casting room, we do think about what you do outside of being an actor.”

“I do a pretty good job at casting actually.”

“I got an internship with the casting director of The Girl Next Door. I would hold the clipboard and help them in their casting sessions and get them lunch.”
