Men at most differ as Heaven and Earth, but women, worst and best, as Heaven and Hell.
I've always said, I prefer the opera to the soap - those extreme characters and circumstances.
I seem to get cast as one of two extremes. Either I play the butch heavy or totally nice guys.
There is the moral spectrum in 'Fargo,' and you see it in other Coen brothers movies, where you have a very good character on one end and a very bad character on the other.
I think the reason I'm an actress is because I love playing kind of a more extreme people.
I've realized over the years I either play very good people or very bad people, and I think I always enjoy the very bad people more.
I suppose I've got a reputation for playing quite extreme characters and making them quite believable.
People have obsessions and fears and passions which they don't admit to. I think every character is interesting and has extremes. It's the novelist privilege to see how odd everyone is.
I do prefer playing baddies because you can push being horrible as far as you want.
I'm always playing extremes, either the vulnerable girl or the vixen.
I don't approach a role by saying I'll be unsavory or unlikable. I think all the roles I've done have been very passionate people who go to absolute extremes to make their points.
In general, I'm always interested in characters who have kind of extreme aspects to them, who are in some ways larger than typical people.
