What's compelling about the story and what's very honest about the story is that it's very real and it's happening. There are 200,000 women in active duty, and over 40% of them are moms. This experience is shared by thousands of women, and no one is right or wrong.

[True Detective] is an intense show, even in terms of the dialogue - there's a little rhythm to it, in particular in his monologues.

It was really just towards the end of shooting where I was about five months, where I needed to tell a costume designer[ of the True Detective].

Education in our family was not merely emphasized, it was our raison d'etre. . . In this family of accomplished scholars, I was to become the academic black sheep. I performed adequately at high school, but in comparison to my older brother, who set the record for the highest cumulative average for our high school, my performance was decidedly mediocre.

When you start fooling around with drugs, you're hurting your creativity, you're hurting your health. Drugs are death, in one form or another. If they don't kill you, they kill your soul. And if your soul's dead, you've got nothing to offer, anyway.
