Notes on Amy Ryan

"I don't mind not being glamorous in a role, because the truth of a situation is where the beauty lies. But being like that next to Angelina Jolie - oh man." - Ryan on working with Jolie in "Changeling" to Los Angeles magazine, November 2008

"When we wrapped this movie ["Gone Baby Gone"], I had to clean up my language. I was cursing like a sailor for about two weeks. I went home and I caught myself over and over. I went, oh my lord. So yeah, first I had to wash my mouth out with soap. You get drunk on the power of such strong language.

"But other than that, I've played really emotional roles in theater. With any job, you should leave your work at the office. Don't take it home with you. I took home the homework and the research, but not the emotional life." - Ryan on playing a drug addicted mother to CNN.com, Feb. 5, 2008
