I was never the 'babe,' so I knew I'd never get those big roles. I'd always be the best friend or the quirky sidekick.
Models have a stigma that they can't act. You're also, to be quite blunt, you're tall and not a lot of actors are tall and when you are starting out you're obviously not the first one cast, so you're trying to fit into a mold. You're quite often not cast as the quirky best friend, but you don't have the experience to be cast as the lead. So it can be really tricky. One of the biggest things is just to get your people, so to speak, your agents and managers to take you seriously. That's one of the issues I had when I came out to LA.
My style is a little quirky. I can't play as fast as most professional jazz players.
If you have a smash hit record or something that's quirky or funny or cool, people are going to go after it.
We've had some really good guest stars. But I have to go with Alec Baldwin as my favorite. He is so neat and such a movie star. He's handsome and quirky. I was in heaven the week he was on the set.
I've always had a quirky way of looking at things. It's my coping mechanism.
I'm the one who's dating the craft-service guy instead of the producer. Plus, if a producer is going to date a hot young thing, I'm probably not the first person on their list - the weird, quirky, funny girl.
All my friends make really small, naturalistic, dialogue-heavy movies, so I'm kind of used to that. I didn't want my movie to be rambly and I didn't want it to be cutesy, or quirky, or clever.
SHADOW PROWLER is a fresh, exuberant take on territory that will be familiar to all fans of classic high fantasy. Alexey Pehov introduces a cast of charming, quirky, unsavory, even loathesome characters in a fast-paced, entertaining adventure.
I don't really think of myself as quirky; I have sort of an unusual sense of humor.
It was more of their quirky show. It was more like a cult show. The ratings weren't really that high.
My parents are very quirky, eccentric. They have their own world.
Nobody ever really thought of me as sexy, right? They thought of me as smart and quirky.
What I like about eyewear is that it can work with a lot of different looks. You can wear it with a Balenciaga dress, or something that is straight and very quirky.
The world is now multicultural the same way the world is round. It's not a selling point, it's not a 'quirky' feature, it's not a cynical marketing ploy, it's not an artistic statement, it's not even a plot device. It's a fact, like seedless grapes.
I'll see anything that Humphrey Bogart did. Weird, quirky, I know but that's the way it is.
Women always want to be what they're not: If you're the pretty girl, you want to be the quirky girl. If you're the smart girl, you want to be the pretty girl.
I think it's one of my favourite theatres ever, so quirky and wonderful and steeped in history. The space is wonderful and the acoustics are brilliant.
It's like, 'Sorry I passed you an STD but I really enjoy your quirky web presence. '
It's like low-budget filmmaking - a focus on dialogue and relationships over plot. Quirky. Improv.
