I've been a Christian for a long time, and I think that Christianity gets a bad rap. I think that people's perception of what a Christian is today is something that is close-minded and narrow, and that's not what I am.
The riskiest thing I have done in my fifties is to do a Polish accent for a new film. I had a great time working on it and two wonderful people to guide me. A dialect coach that I have known for thirty years and a Polish actor.
There's a deep piece of me that wants to be very personal and not share everything with everybody and not put it out there.
I've already made a substantial commitment to wildlife by putting my land in the easement. It won't be developed. It will remain there in perpetuity - will be there for the wildlife.

Diane Keaton, I've worked with her as a director, and I think she's a really intelligent woman. I like the fact that the things that make her feel beautiful are more than just her face; it's who she is, and I live by that same theory.

There's not a lot of light on television.
My children haven't even seen most of my movies.
When the children were little, I'd fly into L.A. for a specific work project, but then I'd leave again, and when I was home, I wouldn't even read a script.
My mother and grandmother both had beautiful skin.
I still love finding the soul of the characters I play and defining who they are. This to me is my paint set, and the colors are always exciting to choose.
Here's the thing with the business, is that when people like your work, and you make them money, you're set. When the critics like you, and you make the studios money, doors opened.
You know what may be the oddest thing about being a star? Stars have an effect on people. It's a responsibility, and it's frightening.
