“All my favorite movies are American movies since I was a kid.”

If you’re undercover for two or three years, I think you lose your private life.

It doesn’t matter if you work with an Oscar winner or if you work with an unknown actor. There is always a collaboration between the director and the actors, and you always have to listen as the actors have to listen to you as a director.

I think it’s very hard for a woman to be treated as a person and not just as a woman who tries to become a politician.

I love Atlanta. It’s a great city with great crews there.

Each shooting day is a big challenge, but it’s also fun.

I was born in Switzerland. Everyone thinks I’m Swiss, but I’m actually German. I’m from Germany.

I always give one actor an emotion to make it very easy so he or she can root to it.

You always face a bunch of hands trying to stop you from working.

In America, people really love movies here and it’s part of the culture. Even in Germany, still sometimes, the theater is always bigger than movies. It’s more art. Movies are more popcorn. Here, movies are really an art form.

England is one of my favorite places. The fans are just so crazy.

I play Hank Hansen, a real guy. Youd be amazed at how much information they have on this guy: personality traits, nicknames, favorite color, you name it.

Your eyes are my favorite book where all of my comforts lie.

Slowly but surely forever is becoming my favorite lie.

You will always be my favorite story to tell.

Some of my favorite things are moments you have given me.

When I look back at the day we first met, I still see the beginning of my favorite love story.

Its been a while since a new face learned my favorite things.
