life is smiling

He doesn't have to know, sweetheart. He's got no right to know. You don't owe him a thing. I'm not doing it for him. I'm doing it for me.

Once upon a time there was a place called the wilderness. It was beautiful. But it was also violent, and misunderstood. And it waited and waited to befriend whoever arrived.

I'm sorry Bunny didn't believe you. But then again, you didn't believe Margaret, so why should anyone believe you? My God, you fascinate me. Because I’ve been waiting for someone like you. Someone to challenge me. No great man has changed the course of history without being pushed to the limits of his potential. And you push me. I do hope you keep going. And yet here you are, preparing dinner, like a good girl.

You ready to be my woman on the inside? No. For sure no. Eleanor. It's gonna be fine. My entire life I've been a chameleon. Sometimes you have to pretend to be someone else to get what you want. Do you ever worry that you'll lose yourself? Oh my God! Don't be so dramatic. All I'm asking you to do is disassociate from your body and be someone you're not so these popular kids will invite you to be in their group. Are you in therapy? God, no. Why?

We normally before every scene read it through about 50%, you don’t go 100% of the way. We were reading it through and suddenly Olivia just started crying. At first, I was thinking, ‘God, she’s just really good, I need to step it up my game massively here,′ so I was really worried at that point. I think then other people told me afterwards that it was because it’s such a beautifully written scene and a crucial part in so many people’s lives. I think it really touched her.
