I turned down a lot of films before I made my first one. I knew that it was time for me to get into movies.

I've often said there's two kinds of actors. There's a more gregarious type and the shy type.

It wasn't until I got older that I realized acting was something I could really do.

[Ocean's Thirteen] is a great group, and it was an opportunity to work with Steven Soderbergh. But mainly? It was shot in L.A. and I want to be next to my kids. So I've been doing everything that has to do with being next to them, close to them.

Is it possible to do something that that makes an audience uncomfortable, challenges them, makes them see things they're not used to? Here in these films [Salome the play and Salomaybe], I have the opportunity to say something about how I feel about things.

I' ve won awards. And they didn't make me feel bad winning them. They made me feel pretty good. But it also did not make me feel bad NOT winning the Academy Award.

If you get all tangled up, just tango on.
