friedo pinto

her career should be much bigger than it is. i love rise of the planet of the apes (mostly for caesar) but i barely remember in it. she was just james franco's extra appendage.

She is just so beautiful. Also I can't remember her talking in any of the movies I've seen her in.
This is a good interview and good for her to not be desperate and slowly but surely finding her place in the industry.

i remember wishing that her character was given more to do in the Apes movie.

She would never work with Allen, because in solidarity with women who have come out with their stories.

She wasn’t given a task other than to be a primatologist in frickin’ high heels and follow the men around.

She spoke to one of the producers and asked why she was put in high heels because it didn’t make sense for her character.

Her request fell upon deaf ears and she was informed that her character had been based upon Megan Fox from Transformers.

Men remain shitty.
