“Write me as a guy, and I’ll do the girl stuff. Just write me as you would a guy: as complicated, as conflicted, as at-fault.”
“Often, you see these female roles written, and I feel as if a male writer writes them to protect a feminine ideal.”
“The fact that I’m a woman magnifies it for the audience. If there’d been a guy playing my part … maybe we’ve seen that film before.”
