Our family adopted Paulie from a shelter as an 8-week-old puppy. We've had him for 11 years, and I think it was valuable for the kids to learn to be responsible for a pet. It's a wonderful thing for families - the unconditional love you get from a pet is something you carry with you for the rest of your life.

I've always been able to let stuff go when I'm done with work.

It's easier in some ways being on the life raft and the other guy's in the boat and you can row alongside and be supportive. In some ways, that's an easier role.

But when you're in something together, it's very hard to be objective and you're very subjective.

I feel my job as an actor is to explore all sides of humanity.

Hollywood is sexist and age-ist, and that covers all the bases, I guess.

All humans need love, attention, and appreciation, and those can be very female traits. I feel like they should be male and female traits, but I think that they are more easily attributed to women.
