How is the transition craft-wise between film work and stage work?
It’s not difficult. I can imagine it would be for someone who had never done one or the other. I’ve worked with people who have only done theatre and the first time they do a film, they’re completely thrown. They don’t know how to position themselves or where they’re supposed to look or any of that stuff. But because I’ve done both of them for so long, it is pretty easy for me to switch back and forth. I think it’s because I started out doing theatre and I did so much film. Do you have a preference for one genre or the other? No, I don’t. There are elements of both that I really like. It depends on the project. I’ve been in great movies, and I’ve been in great plays, and I’ve been in terrible movies [she laughs] and in terrible plays. If it’s a good play, it feels great, and the same with a movie. It sounds strange, but I really like the job aspect of theatre. Because I’ve always been acting and doing something having to do with the entertainment field, I never really had an office job
