“In the end we had pieces of the puzzle, but no matter how we put them together, gaps remained. Oddly shaped emptiness mapped by what surrounded them, like countries we couldn’t name. What lingered after them was not life, but the most trivial list of mundane facts. A clock ticking on the wall, a room dim at noon, the outrageousness of a human being thinking only of herself.”

Sofia’s muses
“You find actors that you connect with — I have that with them. Both of them have a great sense of humor and work on the same page. So, it helps a lot. They get what I want to do. They get my sensibility.”
Lost in Translation (2003)
“Your life, as you know it... is gone. Never to return. But they learn how to walk, and they learn how to talk... and you want to be with them. And they turn out to be the most delightful people you will ever meet in your life.”
EVERYONE WANTS TO BE FOUND.

“Kirsten is some sort of alter ego I connect to in myself. When I met her, she was this all-American, blond cheerleader. But there was something else going on that contrasted that. And yet we already shared a sensibility and sense of humor that helps a lot. Kirsten just gets me and what I’m trying to do. We don’t even have to talk. I’ll just look at her and she’ll go, ‘OK, got it.’”

“When I met Elle I was really like, ‘I can’t wait to see what she grows up to be, I just thought, she’s so talented that I knew she’d be interesting to see grow up. I can’t wait for her to have more complex roles when she’s older. Young actresses stand out and it’s fun to see who they turn into as adults.”
