I really haven't joined the 20th or the 21st century yet. Someday. I'm getting closer. I have voicemail and a fax machine.

I think it kind of took being a character actor to kind of now enter into leading ladies.

I will say from the outset, I think if you're great, you're great from the very beginning. And because I do think it is innate and I do think it is a gift you just have, and I don't think you can - you can hone the skills of a director, but sadly, I do think that you are born a great director. I think it's just in you and it's something that is deep in you. But, I find it can be difficult working with first-time directors, but it's also moving.

If my gravy train stops at SAG, honey, it's been a great ride.

I love writers. All of my best friends are writers.

I always try to approach character first and foremost viscerally.

I try to take off the rose-colored glasses and view it in all facets, but I probably would be lying if I didn't say that probably the way in for a film with me is the performance. But I have been on juries where you have to give Best Screenplay, Best Cinematography. So you do have to put on several different hats and I try to broaden my scope. And what's great is, when you're in a room full of people who are not your milieu, so to speak, you find yourself speaking in a way that you do discover a slightly discerning eye.
