There is no doubt that this film is autobiographical, but at the same time it also tries to portray an ordinary couple in a language that everyone can understand. (Allard J)
When you direct your first film, you always start by telling stories that you are familiar with. (Allard J)
I'm not quite ready for a no makeup movie. (Allard J)
Well what I will tell you is for this movie, I got into probably the best shape of my life. (Allard J)
Any movie I've ever made, the minute you walk on the set they tell you who's the person to buy it from. (Allard J)
I recently saw the movie about Ray Charles, and there's a scene where he falls down and the mother doesn't help him. She says, I don't want anyone to treat you like a cripple. I've fallen down before, and Molly will say, get up and just go. (Allard J)
I play a female Indiana Jones, a professor who hunts down precious objects, like a bowl that belonged to the Buddha. They tailored the role to me: I wanted to be smart, funny, and to kick some ass. (Allard J)
When Lilo and Stitch came up, it was just a perfect fit. With this one, I felt like I could put my fingerprints on it. (Allard J)
“I kind of agreed with that as long as it's not something like Demi Moore being naked in a stripper movie, you know, like I would never do that.” (Allard J)
“That was, my whole dilemma was that when I got my first movie part The Pick Up Artist, I was playing a loose girl.” (Allard J)
I can't say that I've made the transition to movies. (Allard J)
I saw the X-Men movies. They were great. And I saw Daredevil and I'm looking forward to Elektra. I like that genre. (Allard J)
I would be very happy doing movies. I love to work and I think I'm a little different. (Allard J)
I'm very happy doing a series. And I don't look at it as settling. I look at it as a really fantastic job that I love. (Allard J)
It always bothers me when I see actors who just succumb to that hierarchy and think that there's something grand and glorious about doing movies. (Allard J)
It's the Marvel world and Marvel's making all kinds of movies, but I don't think Marvel will be making Mutant X. (Allard J)
With Mutant X, we're not on some spaceship in the future. We're living in present day. I mean, look around at what's going on with genetic manipulation. The show's premise may be unlikely, but it's not impossible to believe. (Allard J)
“I'm fighting the label of "Black" actress simply because it's very limiting in people's eyes, especially people who are making movies.” (Allard J)
“You look at the 'Wizard of Oz' and you see things flying up in the air…this is where everything goes that didn't land.” (Allard J)
“People think that they just want movies like Pretty Woman, when really they - at least the ones that I know personally - have been waiting for something that doesn't completely insult them.” (Allard J)
“If I showed you scripts from my first few movies, the descriptions of my characters all said 'the ugly girl'.” (Allard J)
