I'm proud of everything I've done. If it's comedy, it's 'cause I think it's funny. If it's a drama, it's impactful. I'm leaning towards dramas now because I wrapped a couple comedies in a row. I don't like watching myself, but it's easier on me when I don't have to carry a lot of the comedy. But I enjoy making comedies but dramas come more naturally.
I love good romantic comedies. There just aren't a lot of them. But, I love comedies, and I'll never stop doing them.

Julia Roberts and Sandra Bullock do romantic comedies. I do dark dramas. I do these movies well.
