The truth is, I was always picky anyway.

Bleaching my hair for Two Moon Junction... my hair was fried and I looked like an idiot.

Being a mother for me was like, "Oh, this is what I've been looking for my whole life." This brings me a sense of completion. I never knew I would love this deeply.

I loved working on Of Mice and Men. It was a wonderful group of people. John Malkovich is to me one of the best actors around right now-and a lot of fun to work with.

It's not sometimes realistic to think that something magical can happen, but I think I look for the magic.

That was cool, getting to work with Ryan Gosling. I knew he was going to be a huge star after I saw him in that Showtime thing that he did when he was really young [The Believer]. I think the most fun thing about that was I'd never seen somebody that had so many questions about the specifics of everything: where you ate, how much you ate, how much you drank. He's very special.

People who think they know me would be surprised that my whole life doesn't revolve around sex.
