Talented people are written off once they hit their 50s and 60s, and the saddest thing is, we just get better as we get older.

When I got out of my Twenties I stopped playing women that were victims. I like playing women who are strong and have a piece of mind.

My curiosity and my appetite for evolving as an actor is one of the main components of me still working today in the business.

I've been playing sexually aware women most of my life. At this point I expected to be playing moms and wives. It's exciting to play a femme fatale.

I like movies I can relate to.

The new millennium won't be about sexual labels; it'll be about sexual expression. It won't matter if you're sleeping with men or women. It'll be about sleeping with individuals. Soon everyone will be pansexual. It won't matter if you're gay or straight.

Imagination helps me to become part of that journey that I'm going through in font of the camera, or in front of an audience. I used to think you had to disappear within a character, but I find that puts a mask on what I do.
