To stay interested in acting, I have to keep trying stuff I've never done before.

To work on the actual location I think is great. This thing of going to Canada and pretending you're in New York, it's terrible.

I like playing characters who are out there on the edge, where they can explode at any moment or fall off the precipice.

It is an embarrassing time to be an American. It really is. It's humiliating.

I could be making a lot more money now if I had chosen a different kind of movie, but none of that matters to me... I've done the parts I wanted to do.

Yes, and you should question your government.

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.
