The performances that i love are ones like gena rowlands in 'a woman under the influence,' where women are allowed to be messy and imperfect. it's that kind of woman that has always inspired me to seek roles that are a little out of the box. i just haven't always had the opportunity to do them.

More From Kirsten Dunst

When i was young, i was really, really obsessed with gena rowlands and john cassavetes. because my mom was a projectionist in college, she was somehow able to get a real projector. and she had some connections, so she would get real prints, and we'd put up a sheet. the first movies i saw were to kill a mockingbird [1962], gigi [1958], a woman under the influence [1974]. then when i was old enough to be able to rent movies, i went through a very big cassavetes phase.
