careers actors want
You always absorb a lot from a great actor. What you want, as an actor, no matter where you are in your career, is a partner who's going to bring everything they have to the scene.
two actors kind
It's pretty boring, working by yourself. The scene happens in between the two of you, and then you don't know what it's going to be because it's a kind of combustion. So, you do take something from every actor you work with.
children husband party
Right before I met my husband, I always felt as if the party was happening somewhere else. And once I met him and we had our children, I was like, 'This is where the party is.'
play people roles
People talk about generating my own work, but I don't really know how to go about that. There are certainly some roles in the theater I'd like to play but I don't know if I'll ever get to do it.
running couple yoga
I do Ashtanga yoga three times a week, and I run a couple of times a week, too. I really like yoga; I enjoy the actual doing of it, so it doesn't feel like the agony of the gym felt like to me.
character thinking people
I don't really care if people like a character ornot; I think in life we don't always like everybody. But you haveto be able to understand them.
eye thinking people
People think that the directors direct actors. No. Really, what the director's doing is directing the audience's eye through the film.
acting needs cry
When I was younger, I thought I had to shut myself off, work really hard to cry. I learned after a while that that's just not... You know, often in life, you cry when you're caught off-guard. That's where I need to be when I'm acting, too.
feminist humanist term
At one point, 'feminist' became a pejorative term. How did that happen? If you're a feminist, you're basically saying you're a humanist.
inspirational mother appreciate
When you become a parent, you finally appreciate and understand what your mother did.
plato smart boys
I was a bookworm, and very skinny with big, thick glasses. I never went on dates and guys were afraid of me because I was smart. So I got contact lenses, started to dress a little better and tried not to talk about Plato with boys. It worked!
lines comedy rhythm
Comedy is ridiculously hard. And if the rhythm is not right, if the music or the line is not right, it's not funny.
lying makeup age
With actors, all our ages are out there for all to see - you can't hide anything, really. And it's kind of a relief. This is my age, this is what I look like without makeup on - who cares? That youth culture - that lying about your age - it's all denial of death anyway.
compromise life-is willing
Life is full of compromises, and whether or not you're willing to negotiate.
