waiting heaven film
I did things like Shampoo and Heaven Can Wait. I don't know what those films were about. The women I played in them were not very empowered.
regret too-much kind
I regret that I wasn't the kind of person who could enjoy celebrity. It embarrassed me too much.
mother responsibility thinking
I don't think I would have been a good mother. Being a parent brings immense responsibility. It's a Herculean task. It would be almost too much for me.
regret film turned-down
As I became very defined in my personal politics, I turned down some films that I slightly regret now; I'm not going to say what they were.
children deals
Children can only take so much, and they deal with it however they can.
thinking people missing
I think there has always been an obsession with youth and beauty. What's missing is the equal obsession with respect for…older people…and their wisdom and knowledge and courage.
looks faces cinema
I was utilized because I have a certain face that works well in cinema, and I'm used to making myself look as good as possible
feminist film aspect
There were some films I refused because the feminist aspect was a bit wonky.
america time-passing affair
Most of the time I spent in America, I was having a love affair with some American or other. I was just passing through but stayed because of these chaps.
years single-life fabric
The little things that made up the fabric of the first six years of my life were suddenly ripped away, and I didn't have anyone around me who loved me. Not one single person.
people might admiration
Some people enjoy celebrity. I admire those who do, because if you're going to go through it, you might as well enjoy it.
children tea india
My family said that I wanted to act even when I was a child living on a tea plantation in the jungle in India.
nice integrity thinking
I'm not in the advertising business, but I think it would be very nice if people went to see the film Hamlet, because it was made with love and integrity
thinking acting talent
I think I've got something when I'm onscreen, but that's nothing to do with acting or talent
