The reason of my life is not to be the most beautiful woman in the world.

I didn't want to become an actress because the competition with my mother would have been to much to live up to.

But I don't really see myself as a role model. I'm not a dictator, or someone who wants to be adored!

But my mother loved The Elephant Man, and my father gave David Lynch a scholarship to study in Rome.

You dont do an experimental film to become rich, so the people who are involved are involved because they enjoy the creative aspect of it.

Adoption has the dimension of connection - not only to your own tribe, but beyond, widening the scope of what constitutes love, ties and family. It is a larger embrace. By adopting, we stretch past our immediate circles and, by reaching out, find an unexpected sense of belonging with others.

I believe in a set of values I cannot live by. I set high goals for myself, I seek perfection, dream of exotic faraway places. But ultimately, what I long for isn't far away at all. It's in my own backyard. Imperfection charms me, familiar things move me... a celebration of what we have, instead of what we long for. That for me, is glamor.
