"I've always been the kind of
person that rolls myself into life.
I think both my character and
Sarah's character are hurling
themselves. Maybe Faith is just
learning how to hurl. I'm the
experienced hurler," she laughs.
"I have definitely lived my
[own] life like that, in a won-
derful way. There's both pain
and joy and excitement when
you live your life so fully. The
single life can be really exciting,
really tragic, really everything.
But for some people, life has to
be at a high volume in order to
feel like you're living."
