After I had my son, I found life much funnier and brighter
That was cool, getting to work with Ryan Gosling. I knew he was going to be a huge star after I saw him in that Showtime thing that he did when he was really young [The Believer]. I think the most fun thing about that was I'd never seen somebody that had so many questions about the specifics of everything: where you ate, how much you ate, how much you drank. He's very special.
They've offered me every variation on Audrey Horne, none of which were as good or as much fun.
I loved working on Of Mice and Men. It was a wonderful group of people. John Malkovich is to me one of the best actors around right now-and a lot of fun to work with.
Instead of making Friday The 13th, Part VIII or whatever, I was making the girl-meets-boy, girl-meets-girl-dressed-as-boy movie. It was fun. I liked it. It's goofy. I look back at myself and think, "What the hell was I doing?"
Twin Peaks was special because it was so groundbreaking. In the early '90s it really changed television a lot. A bunch of weird shows, like Northern Exposure, came on after that.
When I read the script, I was like, Hello, woman in a box. I had to explore that to the end.
I say what I feel. I try to be tactful, but I can't not say what I feel. I have a really big problem with that.
I want to learn to laugh and smile more. My acting has always been about doing things that I can grow from, that say something, or should be heard.
I don't flirt and I don't play the people that I'm meeting with.
I'm contemplating moving to London for a period of time. I've been in Los Angeles for 15 years and I'm really tired of it. I'm continually uninspired by what's being sent to me. Even by huge films that they're doing there. They're just awful
I was a brat. It was crazy, I was very picky. In other words, I didn't take advantage of what was happening
Now I know why guys like to hug girls. You guys just want to cop a feel. I can't believe that I've fallen for it all these years!
I think there's an anxiety in life where we automatically tend to look to the next thing or we're complaining about the past. Worrying is not going to make it happen or not happen
