Trending

Patricia Arquette spent 12 years filming Richard Linklater's ambitious Boyhood (2014), a project that earned her critical acclaim and an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Though the recognition has brought Arquette much acclaim, she revealed that the film shot her into one of her largest money-losing independent film shoots. She commanded a meager salary since the film had a low budget. One can't help but think about how expensive life gets for actors when they are working on passion projects, as Boyhood did, which went on to win general critical acclaim.
