I have been involved in some films other actresses would not have done.
Truffaut loved actresses, and he was very intense. All the actresses I knew wanted to do a film with him.
I've joked that I would have either become schizophrenic or an actress, but as an actress you can do both.
At an age when most actresses are being phased out, I am being phased in - with a vengeance.
I'm a pretty girl who's a model who doesn't suck as an actress.
Joan Crawford is a movie star. I am an actress.
I just wanted to be an actress. It never occurred to me that I could become famous, because I'm not one of those people who's automatically going to be the lead. I always saw myself as the mate.
Шn Hollywood actresses say they can't go above a size 6. I think everybody is operating in this huge bubble of fear. I don't think the world will come crashing down on you if you're a size 8.
I think of myself as a journeyman actress. I will attempt almost anything that I think that I can bring off. It could be almost anything.
Any actor or actress that tells you that they don't watch their stuff is lying.
Being an actress hasn't made me insecure. I was insecure long before I declared I was an actress.
The risk for me has to do with the nudity aspects. I'm an American actress in mainstream movies, and I would like to always be able to do them. For some reason, nudity is perceived differently here than it is elsewhere, and I didn't want to lose any American audience that I was building.
My mother is an actress, and she used to drag me from theater to theater and reading to reading.
I'm pretty unusual for an actress in Hollywood because I am totally unselfconscious about my body.
I wouldn't say that I was an actress. I tried to be an actress. I really didn't have the gift.
Being an actress in China, Im actually a very lucky actress... Especially now that Chinese movies are becoming more diverse with more viewers overseas.
I used to get some ego thing out of saying I wasn't a star, just an actress. Forget it. I'm a star. I wanted it. I worked for it. I got it.
And Brooke Elliott is a great actress.
I'm an actress, model, and singer.
My cat is not insane, she's just a really good actress.
There are beauty icons that I can never be like, sorta like a Gena Rowlands - I'll never have that look. I love Giulietta Masina, the great Fellini actress. But I'm probably more Seymour Cassel. Or somewhere between Lou Reed and Nora Ephron?
I always joke that I'm a British actress trying to break into Scandinavian TV.
The core for everything is to be grateful. It's literally as simple as that... I've always known that I'm lucky to be an actress, and I'm lucky to be a working actress. I'm lucky to have garnered attention for certain roles, and I'm grateful for it.
It was my life, playing Juliet. From that moment on I was convinced I was going to be an actress. That was all I really wanted to do.
An actress spends a lifetime observing people. You build up a mental library. No, not a library. Make that a repository.
