I'm especially interested in helping to give visibility to the pandemic of violence against women

[As a producer] [Big Little Lies] is the stories of women that I know, and it was a way in which we could go to other women and say, "Here's a great role. There's five great roles here. They're all complicated. They all deserve to be told, and are you interested?" And that is rare.

If I was in Sydney, I love the beach. Even though I'm incredibly pale, I put on these terribly long unattractive rashies, and people laugh at me. My kids laugh at me. But that's what I would do.

It's very easy to fall in love when things are great, but the way to really fall in love is when things aren't great.

I think I would be very sad if I wasn't able to have a baby.

If you take care of the woman in the family, the whole family prospers. But when the mother falters, the family falls apart.

I'll put it out there: I love getting hugs.
