Interviewer: You're globally recognized...so I was wondering. Maybe you can say to us, the viewers of I-film. What's the right way to meet you and what is the wrong way to meet you? What is the perfect world and what's not so perfect?

Jodie: Ummm...you know, hey toots on the street is not so good.

Interviewer: Hey toots?

Jodie: Yeah, or you know...something nasty on the street. If people....if anybody says anything loud on the street then I get..I can't..that's not a good way to meet me.

Interviewer: Do you..are you kinda like...?

Jodie: Ufff..I just just..you know...I..I..when I was a kid I didn't want anyone to notice me or pay attention to me and so I don't like people being loud..loud and like pointing at me..that's not so good.

Interviewer: Ahhh ohh

JOdie: It's a good way to..

Interviewer: When it's good its gotta be really good thought, right? Sometimes.

Jodie: No.

Interviewer: No?

Jodie: hahahah

Interviewer: You don't feel comfortable with people knowing you and you don't know them?

Jodie: Oh, oh oh yeah. Just not when they yell in the street. But let's think. Is there a good way? What's a good way? A good way..

Interviewer: I only have two minutes so..yeah..

Jodie: You could give me something.

Interviewer: Ha ha..I don't know...I..I..I would not know. I don't have a point...

Jodie: Just give me something and then I will like you.

Interviewer: I don't have a point of reference on that one..you know..but..I ..I certainly will think about that. So uh uh..This Flight Plan..this suspense thriller...and uh..you doing the whole tramatic thing. If you're working 12, 14 hours a day. And you have to have that long face. The mother with her gut wrenched out. Can you just leave that at the set or does it carry on a funk for a couple of months for you?

Jodie: No, just the opposite I think you exercise it by making the film and you go home. You heave this..you do heave a huge sigh of relief when they yell "Wrap" and you go home for the evening. And ummm..I think you just really look forward for an opportunity to hear a joke or listen to music and like hang out with your buds. Umm..and this was a real hang out movie. I think people really hung out on this set and they liked each other. It was just a really really pleasant film. Mostly because all the miserable stuff kind of just happened on screen. and then..you just...you know you just had to live..happy. You just had to be happy.

Interviewer: Is there ever a point when you're working and you just go..I got..I gotta do this today and I don't know if I have it in me. Does that ever happen to you?

Jodie: Sure..umm all the time and uh..yeah there are moments when that happens and you have to just have to apologize and be like..I'm so sorry I suck. hahaha I just..I don't know what to tell you man..but.. today is just..I really suck today.

Interviewer: You can tell from day to day if you're..if you're sucking or not sucking?

Jodie: Yeah..yeah..sure you can..from take to take. SUre you can..I mean..and then you know you've gotta come up with stuff...I mean...your job is you gotta come up with stuff. And..umm..but you know the good ne..news about a movie like this is that there's...you can't deny the subject matter..you know..umm..so you can kind of always find it because the subject matter is so..so close to your skin. It's so real...I mean...you know..and..and..you, you have connections with your own..or I do. I have connections with my own children so you can kind of put yourself in that place.
