character thinking people
One of the ways I think I gain fodder for characters is by watching people.
thinking winning littles
I think that you do get a little extra jolt of confidence when you win an Emmy.
thinking years numbers
I think there was a time when I considered myself a work addict, but that's no longer accurate. My life has changed so dramatically over the last number of years, especially having a family now. My priorities have shifted.
thinking people
I've never been all that interested or aware of what people are thinking about me or saying about me. I think that has kept me safest and sanest.
thinking actresses common
The common misconception is that as an actress you have to learn what you're doing. No, you just have to make the audience think you've learned it.
thinking acting accurate
An addict is an addict. If they're not acting out in one area, it tends to come out in another. I think there was a time when I considered myself a work addict, but that's no longer accurate.
I've said many times I would do this for a long time.
cast spent time
I spent a long time doing independent films, and I?d like to think I?m not getting cast because of the show, but because I?m right for the role.
The Sopranos. I would never want to know.
character downs finding follow imagine thrill ups
You get to follow the same character through a lot of the same ups and downs that you go through in your own life. I can't imagine any place else where you get to do that and what a thrill it is. It's not about finding the character any more. It's about actually being in it and going where ever she goes.
circle existence happy lived living normal prior
I was very happy living a normal existence in New York, having my circle of friends. I lived very anonymously for 12 years prior to The Sopranos.
personally ready
I was here when it happened. I need more time, but that's just me. I'm personally not ready for it.
deal goes kids people relate soprano sort stuff tony
I think people can relate to a lot of these characters. They say, 'Oh, I am sort of like that, and my kids go through stuff like that, and I had to deal with that.' And then Tony Soprano goes and kills somebody.
believed eight fact squeeze time
I have believed him each time before, and I really believe him this time. I think he's done, by the fact that they were only able to squeeze eight more out of him.
