Hong  interview/personal quotes

On how she got into acting

“My first job out of college was at PBS as an administrative assistant. I thought I would be on the production side of things. I fell into acting because I was really shy, and so at night after work, I took public speaking and improve classes, and I started going to auditions sort of as a dare. That was my version of Fear Factor.”

On getting a big break

“The term “break” suggests that my career is suddenly going to launch into the stratosphere commercially, and that’s not necessarily what I’m looking for. Two weeks after I wrapped on Downsizing I did this tiny movie, a small part in an experimental film that Miguel Arteta made. And the next thing I’m going to be working on is a really small film with a first-time feature director [American Woman, playing a radical who helps Patty Hearst]. So those are the things I gravitate toward. I only hope that it means that I’m getting seen by people who share similar sensibilities.”
