‘I have problems because I’m very expressive, and usually red lipstick gets on my teeth and face.’

I think that with any emotion - fear, love, nervousness - if the actor’s feeling it, then the audience feels it.

“You know, it’s recently come into focus for me why I want to be an actor: It’s because of the connection I feel to people.” - Jessica Chastain

I don’t want to be in my car all day. I love getting up in the morning in Venice and walking my dogs down to the cafe to get my tea, and then perhaps going to a bookstore and sitting and reading, then walking to the beach. – Jessica Chastain

Okay, I’m going to let you in on a little secret: I’m a very superstitious person. I’m walking onto the plane as we speak. I’m putting my hands on the outside of the plane and my feet are on the lip of the plane. I have to do it every time before I fly.
