"  On her breakup from boyfriend Fabrizio Moretti: &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s hard to be with someone for five years and say, This isn&amp;#039;t going to work. But it was a time in my life where I finally just said, I can&amp;#039;t live for anyone else anymore. I have to be on my own.&amp;quot;  On the Hollywood career she would like to try: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m in my thirties now, and I really want to try all the things that I haven&amp;#039;t gotten to do yet, like directing, and doing a drama. I&amp;#039;ve produced and gotten to do a lot of optimistic love stories, and that was so where I was at for 10 years in my life. And now I feel like, Okay, now I know how to do that. I wanted to get scared again.&amp;quot;   On preparing for the role of Grey Gardens&amp;#039; Little Edie: &amp;quot;I did what I do when I have a big challenge lying in my path. I go to school. I shut the windows, the shades come down, the phone gets turned off, I don&amp;#039;t go out \u2013 I study.&amp;quot;  On completely transforming for the role: &amp;quot;I knew this was not a courtesy meeting, but not far from it. I didn&amp;#039;t want to come in there like a hungry freak. But I also felt every second counting. So \u2013 polite conversation, then he started looking through my binder, and I saw his demeanor change, actually noticing all the hard work I had put into it. So I just put it out there. I said, `Look \u2013 I have all of this inside of me, and I promise you that I will change my face to be her. I will learn how to stop talking out of the side of my mouth. I will go to school to relearn body language. I will shut out the world. I will not talk to my friends. I will give up my life for this, because I don&amp;#039;t think you can play this character and have a social life and balance the two mentalities. I won&amp;#039;t act. I&amp;#039;ll become this person.&amp;#039;&amp;quot;  CHECK OUT THE MAY ISSUE OF ELLE FOR THE FULL STORY ON DREW BARRYMORE CLICK HERE TO SUBSCRIBE TO ELLE "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
