"Your friends back home, the friends that used to validate everything that you used to do… You know, you had sex with a girl when you were young, you told your friend, and then it kind of happened. Then we sealed the deal. This thing happened because it happened and then I told my best friend. A lot of my most recent film experiences, ‘Bright Star’ definitely included, you find yourself in these really surreal, fantastic situations that you never thought would happen to you. There’s no one around. There’s no one around from your childhood to say, ‘Can you believe this?’ And that sucks."
