  • Quotes

    Regarding her canine costar in Seven Pounds:

    • "I'm more of a dog person, but actually I'm really allergic to animals in general. For the movie, I was on two different types of pills and a cream; I was breaking out in hives. There were two "Dukes"; one who slobbered a lot more than the other — and I was head-butted in one scene by that horse! The scene where I fall we must've shot 25 times, with me cracking my head against the floor, because the dog didn't know where to go — it would stop, it sat on me twice."—Rosario DawsonNY Mag: Rosario Dawson on...Will Smith (December 18, 2008)
