Clea DuVall
I've gotten better at not making people feel uncomfortable with my shyness.
Because of the high altitude, you get drunk really fast. So everyone's drunk all the time.
I talk too quiet, and I have to yell on stage.
I don't like anything new.
I like horror movies, they're fun. It was the most fun I've had on a movie set.
I love Les Beaux Peeps. Everyone in that band works together really well. I used to go out to see bands a lot; now it seems there just aren't any I like.
I try to keep an open mind but I'm so tired of the mediocrity.
I was a loner in high school. I keep to myself, but I love life.
I'm a lot more grounded now, a lot more settled in my skin.
It takes 300 years, it seems, for the great bands to get their due.
It was strange at times. We had to make out so much that we kind of got over it. It was really awkward.
It's hard to be scared when there are 80 people around you.
My senior year I was basically supporting myself, so it was like, Do you want to eat and pay the rent, or do you want to go to school? I wanted to eat and pay the rent.

We need to humanize women instead of making the idea of a woman be so stigmatized. That's what's interesting to me as a writer and a director - being able to tell stories that represent women as human beings and don't relate specifically to their gender. I want to just allow them to have their journeys.Collection: Journey

The expectations of women are sometimes so unfair.Collection: Expectations
I think audiences definitely respond to people who are not living the perfect lives. The flawed characters, the people who are struggling. The antiheroes - people like to see that a lot more.Collection: Struggle
I think bisexuality is frowned upon for a lot of different reasons. But I don't like any of those words. I don't like any of those labels. I think they're limiting.Collection: Thinking
I’m just a real loner kind of person, and yeah, kinda dark. But I’m happy. Not sad. I’m just shy and nervous.Collection: Real
I don't know about "dream role." I do so many dramatic roles or period films or [play] traumatized people or stressed-out people or very intense things, high stakes happening all the time.Collection: Dream
It takes years to readjust dynamics and relationships, and to overnight create the new dynamic, I was surprised by how challenging that was for me personally.Collection: Challenges
Ben Affleck inspired me and reignited my love for acting and filmmaking. It was a big part of getting me to a place where I felt inspired to make my own movie.Collection: Acting
Being on a set for one day is hard enough no matter what it is. You're the new guy, and you go in, and as you get comfortable it's over.Collection: Guy
