First of all - I only believe what I see.

A few months after graduation I was working in films. It took off pretty quick.

Now I listen to all kinds of music except rap, which all sounds the same to me.

They used to say I was a younger Winona Ryder and that always made me laugh because I'm three years older than she is.

An audience is going to be able to find a little bit of Dorothy in themselves and relate to this woman.: roles like Dorothy Day are so rare in Hollywood.
