What bugs me is that movies don't reflect how interesting and vibrant women are. We don't treasure women as they get older.
I wasn't very good about juggling family and my career. I was interested in who was coming to the children's birthday party, what my son was writing. I was thinking about Legos.
A woman came up to me after one of the screenings with tears pouring down her face and sobbed, You've defined my entire life for me on the screen.
I dont theorize too much. I sort of let the experience sink in, and I have to discover what the character is by doing it, and having those thoughts that shes thinking.
I no longer say nice things about yoga. I was doing yoga so long before everybody else.
I just didn't work that much while the kids were growing up.
I want to be an actress, not a personality.
I don't like sitting around in my dressing room very much. It feels a lot like theater.
I notice now, whatever character in whatever movie youre watching, they have these toned arms and muscles.
There's something about soft, unstructured arms that's very beautiful.
I came from dinner, went downtown with my friends, the elevator was down, I ran down the hall toward my room at 10 at night, having had two glasses of wine.
I like to run, to go down the stairs, I'm one of those kind of people.
Well, this would be nice if it worked out, but I'm not selling the farm.
Clothes are part of the character. They can't but help inform who you are.
There was just this amazing individuality. It's just a whole different world of optimism and fearlessness, women taking off their bras and dancing around naked, and a political hopefulness and involvement.
I love to swim for miles; I could just go back and forth.
People always seem to see echoes of their own lives in my films.
