You can never judge your characters. You have to love them, really care about them. You're never just playing a villain or the crazy lady.

I think it's somebody else's job to decide what my image is.

You get angry - death does that.

The thing that drives me nuts is when I get stopped in a crowded place, and they look at me and say, 'Who are you?' I don't know if they're friends or fans, and I say, 'I'm Annabella Sciorra', and they say, 'What have you done?' So I start to give them my resume. It's so embarrassing.

I feel that I've worked with a lot of interesting people, and I have no regrets. I'm just curious about what I might have done if I'd had people in my life then who did explain what the publicity game was.

Sometimes, when you win, you lose.
