There's something so muffled about the way you experience things. It's as if you were trying to slip through life unchanged.

I figured as I got older, the good roles for women would be in the theatre. So 15 years ago I started building a Broadway career to try and develop the chops to be accepted as a great theatrical actress.

It begins and ends with money. It's absurd in this day and age when we need so much money for education, health, for people, that a $100 million dollars can be spent on a film. It's obscene

I often play women who are not essentially good or likable, and I often go through a stage where I hate them. Then I end up loving and defending them.

Get more women producers, writers, directors. Why should we expect men to do it for us? They can't

I'm very practical. What I'm reaching for is individualism for women

I'm not bad, I'm just drawn that way.
