The actress cited 2013’sAfternoon Delightas a turning point for her career, creatively speaking.
“It was every single thing.
It was all of it.

“They saw me for the first time in this medium as someone wholly, if that makes sense…. “Thanks a lot!”
Reilly cried from across the stage.
“You mean having sex in a steakhouse bathroom wasn’t what you were meant to do?”
“No,” Hahn assured him.
“That was everything for me, John.
Pike also struggled with feeling misunderstood in the early days of her career.
And I realized very quickly there was nothing I could do about it.”
The director said she wasn’t right for the role, and Kulig decided to quit acting again.
“I said, ‘Why not?'”
“I’m very attracted to strong directors,” Dafoe said.
And I love that process.
I love, yes, preparing but not knowing exactly where you’re going to go.”
He’s someone who’s just looking every day to find the truth, right?
I thought, ‘Fair enough, at least I got that warning.'”
I was holding the GoPro in my mouth and was running through the bush.
It was a weird self-portrait of myself, but of just what was around me."
And I said, ‘Bob, I will never work again if you watch this movie.’
Will you do it?’
I said yes."
By the time the credits rolled onHudson Hawk, “It was like magic,” the actor remembered.
“The entire cinema had been vacuumed of people.
They had all fed off.”
But then sometimes the space between indie and studio doesn’t feel quite so vast.
“You take everything that you do in independent cinema, and you take that wherever you go.
“That’s the only objective, to get closer to the truth.
There’s no formula.
Throw out the rulebook.”
But who’s to say that it’s possible for you to’t have it both ways?
Can’t you throw out the rulebook when you’ve got budget to burn?
Pike cited her experience onGone Girl, with David Fincher, as evidence that you’re able to.
“David has a tiny crew, comparatively, and all the money goes on time.
We shot for 106 days,” she said.
“Obviously the number of takes he does is infamous, but that’s where the money goes.
I think he has got a totally independent spirit, but he requires money.”
