00:06Chloe, how do you feel about If I Stay being compared to The Fault in Our Stars?
00:11The Fault in Our Stars centers around a young love story that is also centered around diseases such as cancer.
00:17With our story, it encompasses a lot more than just two people.
00:20A major part of it is the young love, but I think it's also predominantly about the familial love,
00:26and the love for music, and the love of life.
00:29Isn't it amazing how life is one thing and then, in an instant, it becomes something else?
00:34Like, here I am, Mia, the girl who thinks about the cello and Adam and Juilliard, and just like that.
00:43Did watching If I Stay make either of you cry?
00:46Yep.
00:46Stacey Keech, I thought he was absolutely brilliant in that scene. It was kind of heartbreaking.
00:51When, you know, she finds out Mom and Dad are dead, and there's, like, that little flashback of them, like,
00:57kissing in a chair.
00:58And you're like, stop it.
01:00What are some of your other favorite tearjerker movies?
01:03The Notebook.
01:04In Saving Private Ryan, where Giovanni Ribisi, he's away from his mother, and he talks about laying in bed when
01:11he was a kid.
01:12That always gets me.
01:13This is a really dark answer, by the way, is Schindler's List.
01:16I'm not going to do that.
01:17Yeah.
01:18Yeah, that's horrible.
01:19That movie just, like, ruins me.
01:21So there's so many beloved books being turned into movies.
01:24One is a book that you'd like to see be turned into a movie next.
01:28I want to do a classical retelling of Breakfast Symphony's, Truman Capote's book, the real retelling of it, though.
01:36She was a call girl who had a lot of psychological issues, and she was involved in drugs and everything
01:42else,
01:42and I would love to do a real retelling of that in a couple years.
01:46Junior Officers Reading Club, which is written by a guy who was a soldier in Afghanistan, and he created this
01:52reading club amongst the troops,
01:53and then he kind of documents all of his experiences at war. I think that's really cool.
01:59Chloe, how do you remind yourself to stay sane and grounded?
02:02My family does that for me just for the fact that they all kind of beat me up and kind
02:06of are like,
02:06you have to stay grounded more than anything.
02:08I don't really have the chance to allow my head to expand, but I think it's honestly just keeping your
02:14eye on the prize
02:15and the fact that you are blessed to be able to be where you are, staying true to who you
02:20are,
02:20and to always remember that you are doing this because you love acting, not for the BS of everything else,
02:27you know?
02:27How am I supposed to decide this?
02:29I want this to be over!
02:33Life is this big, fat, gigantic mess. That's the beauty of it too, you know?
