Fanning talks about the importance of being able to say no:

“Being empowered to say no is pretty cool. Even when I was little, any of my friends or family would say, ‘Dakota doesn’t do anything she doesn’t want to.’ And I don’t. I’m very sensitive to energy and vibes, and if a vibe is off somewhere, then I’m out. I’ll just go. If it’s not working for me? Just no.”

Speaking about her upcoming film 'The Bell Jar', Dakota steers the conversation away from Sylvia Plath's suicide:

“We want to make a cinematic experience. A lot of people have this idea of The Bell Jar being dark and depressing, and that it’s Plath’s biography. It’s not; it’s a novel. There’s a lot of humor, irony and light—those are things we want to bring out, the parts people don’t think of right away.”
