And in the middle of one of those scenes, I suddenly felt my heart just open: it was overwhelming, to the point where I got teary-eyed. Never would I have thought anything like that could happen in a love scene.
Apparently I'm the most naked that anyone's been on TNT. My poor mother. I'm ready to run away.
But I'm attracted to roles where I get to really go in and explore a character.
But ultimately what's important to me is whether or not I grow as a human being during the process. What happens after that is in God's hands.
Every actress has a line she'll draw, where she'll say, This I will do and this I won't. For me, everything has to be important to the story and the director has to be able to tell me why.
I grew up in Colorado - went back there, tried to heal myself and grow and learn, then got a call that David Lynch wanted me to fly back to Seattle so he could meet me for Twin Peaks.
I highly recommend tantric sex workshops.
I just found out last week - my sister told me - that my father had some Beatles records. So I must have heard them quite a bit, but it never registered, really. Now I listen to them with new ears.
I just turned 30 so I got really introspective as you do, questioning my life. And when I stopped and sort of looked back at the past decade, I realized I had done more work than I thought I had done.
I never really thought of Laura as sexual because she's a victim of abuse. Sex and love have completely different meanings for her.
I remembered their songs but I had never owned a Beatles album.
I was in Seattle and I wanted nothing more than to act, but I was so terrified of it that I couldn't even get myself to an audition. It was miserable.
I would love to play a nun. I used to want to be one when I was a kid.
I'm fascinated with all kinds of religion, but I'm not committed to any specific one.
I'm interested in that journey and that's the thing that keeps me in this business.
I'm not going to pass on that job just because there were a couple of nude scenes.
If something scares me, then I have to do it.
It's awkward: Here you are with most of your clothes off in bed with this person who you've really just met. You're strangers to each other's bodies and you're coming together for the first time in front of all these people.
It's still difficult for me to watch my work.
My biggest fear in life is fear.
The more we deny that we have a dark side, the more power it has over us.
Usually, sex scenes are technical and unromantic and embarrassing and awkward, and I'm very uncomfortable with them.
You always hear actresses talk about how unromantic it is to act a love scene or a sex scene - which it is. You're doing it with all these lights on and cameras flying around and people on the set.
