This really starts about the 1:12 point as far as the actual "monologue" is concerned...but this is my absolute favorite monologue. And the nearest and dearest to my heart.

You see, as a small small small child, I was over at my great grandmother's house, and she was watching a Bette Davis documentary. They played this clip, and that's seriously and honestly, hand to god, the moment I knew I wanted to be an actress.

I'm 24, and I still act and pursue it as much as (well, actually more than) money allows.

So here it is. The moment I chose to become an actor.

It's a short one but it's brilliant:



About from 30 seconds to a minute.
