Suri is my daughter, she's very, very special to me, and this project took a lot of time and because it's my first feature I wanted her to know that she's so special to me. I thought that as she gets old that will mean more to her, that she's always the most important, and I wanted to give her a special thanks because she means everything to me.
Definitely being a mom changes your perspective on everything.
Becoming a mother has been the most amazing experience - in an instant you become strong. You have to be a little bit wiser; it's the most important job in the world.
I felt that there was a beautiful story [ in "All We Had"] to be told and one that was valuable and also one that was a size that I could do as my first.
You go in thinking you have to do this all by yourself, and what I learned was no, when you hire great people, they do so much for you.
I have some road rage inside of me. Traffic, especially in L. A. , is a pet peeve of mine.
When I read scripts and when I read books, it's more of an emotional response and I was really drawn to these characters.
She'll really tell me [what she thinks]. Like today I'm wearing brown suede pants, and she said, 'I don't like your pants. ' But then she'll say, `You've got to wear these shoes. ' Or 'That's so pretty, Mom. Wear that. ' She's got a great eye.
Growing up, I always had my dreams set on being an actor, so I looked up to Julia Roberts, Audrey Hepburn. I also look up to Kate Winslet and Renée [Zellweger] and Cate Blanchett. . . and Diane Keaton - she's a genius. I think it's very inspiring to see these women attack such complex roles.
I'm not the easiest person to live with. I'm kind of a slob. So for me to consider a roommate, it would have to be one of my sisters or something.
Pretty, and you may be talented, but nobody will remember that if you're mean.
I'm just going to say that I met somebody last year, I fell in love, I had my first love, and it was something so incredible and indescribable.
I got caught kissing. Like by my parents. It was so horrible. It's so embarrassing, I'm blushing.
I like being part of good movies and telling stories that mean something to me. I also like playing characters that I look up to.
~I've never met a 2-year-old who is terrible. I'm so cool with every stage my daughter goes through. I just think she's amazing. I hope she's not looking at me thinking, Mom, are the terrible 30s coming on with you?~
I'm really into my running workout. Running really helps me clear my head and makes me feel good, especially when I'm stressed.
I think I want to pursue a movie career and maybe even pursue some theatre.
It's nice to do something about something that scares you rather than just run from it and hope that someone saves you. I like seeing strong female characters and somebody who doesn't run away screaming when scared, but confronts the monsters.
It's kind of fun being the cute, little one. In fact, I'm finding it hard to grow out of that.
When I was on set I tried not to bug Steven Soderbergh too much. "Why did you put the camera there?" But he was very open to my questions and definitely being on his set was really thrilling because he's such a master.
