Characters with no integrity are just as interesting as characters with lots of integrity.

I try as hard as I can for everything to be different from one movie to the next.

Characters with no integrity are just as interesting as characters with lots of integrity.

What appeals to me? There are things, points of view, uses of the language, habits of dress, ways of thought and believing that came to me from my grandparents and came to them from theirs. Things that are of good use in any situation, no matter what the future may hold.

Ethnic stereotypes are boring and stressful and sometimes criminal. It's just not a good way to think. It's non-thinking. It's stupid and destructive.

I'm a believer in belief. Faith is something that works - it causes people to do things, it has results. It's an intangible, indefinable, very real thing. And it moves people, sometimes to atrocity. And sometimes to survival.

Meryl Streep does not make mistakes. Sometimes the world just can't keep up.
