I didn't want to raise my kids in this weird, sycophantic society. If you have celebrity parents, it's not a good recipe for the kids, or anyone at any age.
Now that my kids are out of the house, I'm finally able to get to the classics I never read: Emily Bronte, Dylan Thomas, Joseph Heller's 'Catch-22.' It's endless. They're all in this gigantic pile next to my bed.
They're good kids and they love to read.
I really wanted to be a mom. I didn't want my kids to be raised by a nanny, which would have been the case if I were working two movies in a year, you know? And I would have been hospitalized with fatigue.
Is that romantic fantasy real? Um, after kids, no. Take the kids away, I don't know. Depends.
I secretly want to skydive, even though it's my greatest fear!
I've been told I've done a lot of flop movies. And I think, 'Wow, I've never considered them flops!' I've loved every character I played.
The word 'demand' is a tricky word when used by our gender. When used by men, it's part of their vernacular.
The seasoned woman is going to offer a more seasoned character.
Entertainment and escapism - those are the bigger money-making films today.
The revolution of electronics hasn't taken away the good smell of books. It's really hopeful to see.
People buy box sets, and they sit for a whole weekend with a computer on their lap in bed, and they watch two seasons back-to-back of a show. They are invested in the person within that arc or the dynamics of those people - the relationships - and it doesn't matter to them if they're watching it on an iPhone or a cinema screen.
I've always been a T-shirt, Levi's, leather jacket, and combat boots kind of girl.
Running gets everything done, doesn't it? Covers it all.
