It wasn’t that type of film. It was smart and well written and we had a good captain, the director John Stockwell was someone we could trust, being in vulnerable wardrobe; being in vicarious situations without many clothes on. He was someone we could trust and we knew he would take care of us.” she also had a very small role in Running With Scissors (2006) and appeared in the Dashboard Confessional music video for “Stolen”, and the French Kicks music video for “So Far We Are”.
