There's something magical still about it when I get in a darkroom, and you've shot a roll of film and you develop it and you look at your negatives, and there's like imagery there. That always stuns me.

To my mind the election was stolen by George Bush and we have been suffering ever since under this man's leadership.

So much of my sense of who I am is tied to mothering. When they left home, I fell into a huge, empty, black hole. Your children are grown and your career has slowed down - all the stuff that took up so much attention is gone, and you're left with expansive time and space.

I do love acting. But to work as a photojournalist would have been extraordinary.

I want to live my life with no goals anymore, but just completely free, like I did when I was younger.

Sometimes parts just come along when it's the perfect time for you to do them.

I never think of the future. I never imagine what comes next.
