I don't like sitting around in my dressing room very much. It feels a lot like theater.

I wasn't very good about juggling family and my career. I was interested in who was coming to the children's birthday party, what my son was writing. I was thinking about Legos.

People always seem to see echoes of their own lives in my films.

Well, this would be nice if it worked out, but I'm not selling the farm.

A woman came up to me after one of the screenings with tears pouring down her face and sobbed, You've defined my entire life for me on the screen.

What bugs me is that movies don't reflect how interesting and vibrant women are. We don't treasure women as they get older.

I love to swim for miles; I could just go back and forth.
