“Acting really suited me because I could connect as an actor to emotion...” — Mia Wasikowska Quote

Acting really suited me because I could connect as an actor to emotion.

As an actor you have to wait for someone to cast you, so you're relying on the business.

My mom used to have a lot of European cinema playing in the house, so I'd catch bits and pieces of films.

I rarely meet other young actors.

I want to keep doing roles that are challenging and different.

We thought that the Internet was going to connect us all together. As a young geek in rural Maine, I got excited about the Internet because it seemed that I could be connected to the world. What it's looking like increasingly is that the Web is connecting us back to ourselves.

I tend to begin with what you might call the very small world of personal life. But I am certainly interested in how that small, intimate world connects or doesn't connect with a larger world.

Soul music is true to its name. It's music that connects to your soul, your spirit. When music resonates with people's spirit like that, when people can emotionally connect with something or it helps to heal them, transform them, that never goes out of style. People will always need something to relate to.

We were film geeks. We devoured everything: really obscure art films, foreign films. We were the kind of guys that lived at the Cinematheque. But at the end of the day, your favorite movies are like everybody else's favorite movies. Because those are the movies that become a touch point where you can connect to other people.
