I don't have a caustic sense of humor. What I find funny, that humor comes from a much gentler place.

I'm thinking about anything and everything. I'm making stuff up in my head, I'm using sense memory. Sometimes when it doesn't come and you've got no choice because you're getting paid to do it, you grasp at straws. It's always easy now with my kids. I just create some "what-ifs" in my head, something horrible that would devastate me as a mother.

Whether we call it religion or faith, we all battle for a balanced integrated soul.

Whether youre making a million dollar film or a $100 million film there is never enough money, theres never enough time.

No role is more challenging, rewarding and inspiring than my real-life role as a mom and a wife.

My father instilled in me - of utmost importance and innate in me is the yearning to determine for myself - to define God, to define holiness for myself.

There really are three types of religious movies: the ones that make fun of it, the ones that vilify it and the ones that literally preach to the converted.
