Quote by Octavia Spencer
I think its actually a misperception that I am a comedic actress.

I think its actually a misperception that I am a comedic actress. I do more drama than comedy but very little of it has been seen. When you are in big funny movies and they do well and your little part in it kind of explodes people perceive you as a comedian. – Octavia Spencer
