Celebrity reactions | Ruth Wilson

On her role in “The Affair”: “I work hard, I care so much about the characters I create; I was really intent on serving the grief of this character. My godmother has suffered what Alison went through, and I wanted to see what that felt like, to serve that.”  (Lawrence K. Ho / Los Angeles Times)

Celebrity reactions | Richard Linklater

On filming “Boyhood”: “So much of life also demands patience, and film is the most patience-demanding art form -- and this was that times 12. What it took away in urgency, it gave us in time and we used that time to dig deeper to develop these characters.”  (Lawrence K. Ho / Los Angeles Times)

Celebrity reactions | Jill Soloway, center, 'Transparent' creator

On creating “Transparent”: “My own parent came out as trans three years ago.

Celebrity reactions | Patricia Arquette

On the 12th year of filming “Boyhood”: “The last year [of filming], I was so sad that we were finishing. I was like, ‘I’m the mom! And the mom doesn’t agree that it’s 12 years.

On the red carpet scene, and “Silicon Valley’s” nomination: “There’s just so many people, a lot of cameras and questions. I don’t know if [we’ll win]. The show’s only had eight episodes. I’m already practicing my ‘It’s OK if we don’t win’ speech.”  (Jay L. Clendenin / Los Angeles Times)
