I always say about acting: the audience doesn't come to see you, they come to see themselves. So if you're able to give them an experience where they feel, 'Oh, my gosh, that's me, that's my story, they know!' then you've done your job.

Ever since there's been a Hollywood, they remake a movie every 20 years.

I love my kids with all my heart and the last thing I want to worry about is the air they breathe.

I was lucky enough to come in at the beginning of the independent film movement, and it's really shaped my life and my career.

You know, comedy's hard. With drama, you have a responsibility to the emotional truth, but with comedy, you have emotional truth and you have technique on top of it.

For me, the most important thing is that I feel comfortable with the actor that I'm working with and I'm able to talk to them.

I like the excitement you get at touching another human being when you're acting with them and then having a little spark and not knowing what is going to happen in between you.
