“When I got the script to this movie, The Good Girl, I read it in an hour. The writer, Mike White, has an ability to create characters that are so creepy and dysfunctional and human, with this duality that makes people feel empathy for them at the same time. My first thought was 'Was this sent to the right person?' I called my agent. 'Are they sure? Let's say yes before they realize they've sent it to the wrong person!'” PeopleFeelsFirstsHumansPersonsBookCharacterGirlReadingActorsRealizingHoursAbilityWhiteEmpathyScriptsAgentsMovieMikeDualityCreepyRight PersonBooks And ReadingGood GirlWrong Person Author:Jennifer Aniston

“I do read some of the scripts from America and, even though the themes or subject of the film is very interesting, and some of the scenes are very interesting, there is a tendency that they have to explain everything. There will be no dilemma. This guy was evil, and this girl was very sweet. And in the end, we'd have to see eight endings because we'd also have to know what happened to the uncle.
