I’m a really proud, happy Canadian. I think we’ve got it figured out in our country. For example, gay marriage has just been legalized in all of the U.S. and it’s like, ‘Wow, hashtag lovewins,’ but that’s not necessarily a leap forward compared to what we’ve already experienced in Canada years ago.

You can have a bunch of great actors in a film, but if you don’t have anyone telling a great story, it’s a moot point. Sarah Gadon Read Quote
In the summer, I love to go up north to a cottage and relax by the lake, swim, go canoeing… I also love riding my bike around Toronto, going to the farmer’s market, cooking. That sounds simple, but it’s a luxury you don’t have when you’re living in hotels. Sarah Gadon Read Quote

I read a lot about her. I read a lot of bios. I read bios about the royal family; I read this little novella called ‘The Uncommon Reader,’ which is a fiction: it’s about Queen Elizabeth going on this library bus and choosing books and reading them, but it’s so sweet. Sarah Gadon Read Quote
When you look at something that’s so extraordinary, like a man who is traveling back in time to prevent JFK’s assassination, for me, as an actor, you’re still trying to seed it in some sort of reality. Sarah Gadon Read Quote
I was getting a lot of pressure to go to the States, but I never really wanted to. I saw Cronenberg forge his own path, and that made me believe that I could do that, too. Sarah Gadon Read Quote
