I feel like I’m the only person – or woman, at least – who hasn’t read ‘Fifty Shades of Grey.’ Carla Gugino Read Quote
I like being the lead but I like being in an ensemble. There are different challenges and dilemmas with both. If you’re carrying a film, there’s a certain weight, but there are a lot of scenes to explore the character. When you’re in an ensemble, you have to convey the entire character in a limited number of scenes. Carla Gugino Read Quote
You know, I used to be made fun of as a kid for being really articulate; it was sort of like a strange thing. Carla Gugino Read Quote

Well, first of all, I’m an incredibly gullible person – I’m so bad that when I said that to someone, my friend said, ‘You know, ‘gullible’ isn’t even in the dictionary.’ And I said, ‘Really?’ As I was saying ‘Really?’ I will acknowledge that I then realized what was happening, but that’s how bad I am.

Unfortunately, ‘chick flick’ has become a term to describe most movies that I don’t even like. They’re these movies that, yes, have women in them but they really don’t reflect who women are, and there’s something kind of silly or shallow or gossipy about them. Carla Gugino Read Quote
I think when I first started acting there were different people who I thought, ‘I want that person’s career or that person’s career.’ And as time has gone on, it’s become really clear to me what is important to me; getting the best roles, the roles that I feel are challenging and scary and that I haven’t done yet.
